You can still click and wait in line, but it says "Sold out" every time.

Yep I wasted 11 hours of my life and missed it by seconds, very frustrating

That's awful. We all wasted a lot of time. Why can't they just look at their applications on file and invite 400 candidates?

It's still showing the 9am isn't sold out. People have multiple windows open on multiple devices and it's only giving a limited time to acknowledge you are there and register so if people miss that short window to register in the ticket goes back in the queue. It's worth it to keep trying for a while.

Or is this just a complete waste of time? Because I'm pretty sure that if I were competitive I'd have gotten a call by now.

Another thing I have to wonder is whether the system is being gamed somehow. There are people out there who know how to write login bots for just these kinds of events. Last time around I heard that guys who'd paid big money to pilot interview prep services were somehow winding up with job fair slots.

Not trying to float a conspiracy theory so much as trying to shoot one down.

Anybody have any insights?

He might be onto something here.....

I got on at 1256 eastern, selected the 1pm as #15 in line. No slot, and three other attempts as 1000+ were sold out. It was all over for me by 1209.

It has to be hacked by some clever programmers.

Keep trying, sold out does not necessarily mean sold out. I kept trying and got one for AM. KEEP trying!!

Keep trying. I just got a ticket for the morning slot after many unsuccessful attempts.

The place in line doesn't update for me anymore. Just says, 'you are currently in line' with no place.


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 09:52 PM.
