Are you (and other peeps in the same boat) re-interviewing, or are your CJOs being honored?

exact same thing with a guy I interviewed with. The next month he was hired by UPS. In fact of the 8 of those interviewed with me 4 got the CJO and only I showed up for class.
I didnt have a CJO anywhere else though but I didnt really apply anywhere else.
this was before the hiring really opened up everywhere

App window will open soon I bet once they figure out how many prev CJO holders are still interested.

CJO is being honored, mostly. Gonna be a brief rundown of changes, and then sounds like offered a class date if all goes well. Definitely NOT the full-blown interview!

No matter what class date they give you, call and ask for an earlier class!

Good to see they're doing the right thing, even if they wouldn't promise to back at the beginning of this silliness.

No idea, actually. A handful from my group that I know of. Really glad to see they're offering another shot!

Soooo I suppose I feel a bit silly asking, given how insane 2020 was and how current conditions are, but do you all still see OAK and BWI as the junior bases? With all the early outs and everything else, any ideas which bases may be first obtainable? Obviously, I've got quite a bit of time to kill between now and then (and I still have to get the CJO back). I'm so out of the loop after this last year. Is DEN still expanding a lot?

Who knows what things will look like in a few months, but currently there are a lot of unhappy commuters.
