I've learned the mock bids don't mean much, but looks like Junior CPT spot is a 2017 hire. Will probably change, but there it is.

It simply is the result of everyone’s current bid. It isn’t worth much because it can’t account for individuals’ bids changing between now and the closing date.

It is generally 2 or 3 bids showing projected results before the bid actually closes, and the mock bid projections are usually wildly inaccurate compared to the official bid results. Thereby “mocking” you when the bid is posted 😜

Historically they seem to get more senior as bid close date nears.
