Bump to get a couple thoughts from the group:

Did my resume review on 7/28 and took the Hogan on 7/29 and passed.

My resume review revealed that I had transposed two digits of the last four of my phone number, creating a little confusion when my reviewer tried to call me. We straightened it out and I was able to upload a new (corrected) resume before it actually locked.

Haven't heard back on scheduling an interview yet. What are the chances they still for some reason have the incorrect phone number for me? It's correct now on my resume and was always correct on my application.

I still can't believe neither I nor my interview consultant caught the incorrect phone number.... :(

If the pre-interviewer made a note of it then you should be fine. Specially if you already received a Hogan. As I know you have, reading through these forums, you can appreciate that everyone’s process is different. Seems like UPS does not have a set standard on how the run the hiring process. Just be patient, an erroneous phone number is not an end all. They want the meat and potatoes and the error was caught and discussed.

Thanks, yes I try not to rehash things that have been worked out in this forum already and I feel fortunate that things have worked out as they have already as I know others who have had apps locked with less progress. Thanks for the reply. As Tom Petty said, waiting is the hardest part :D

I also did mention to the pre-interviewer that due to my travel situation October will be a hard time to interview, so maybe that plays into it as well.

It likely has something to do with it. I mentioned to my phone interviewer that my wife and I had a child due within the next week or two. When I finally got the call to schedule an interview, it was 6 weeks later. The HR rep on the phone mentioned that there was a note in my file that I would be unavailable...even though I did not ask for 6 weeks. Very considerate of them, but also a bit much.

Best of luck!

Resume review complete. It’s been over 36 hours and no Hogan.App is locked.
Shall I accept my fate as unsuccessful?

:eek: Impatient much. We move at the speed of business. That’s pretty slow. Did the caller mention next steps or to expect the Hogan? If so give it a week and then contact them (probably by email) to let them know the Hogan still hasn’t shown up. If they didn’t discuss next steps or the Hogan, you may not have made the cut for whatever reason or they need to discuss you with their fellow HR types for some reason. Don’t give up too fast. Worst case apply again in early January. Good luck.

How often is the job posting / application window opened?

Why did you post this twice?

He started at a regional a year ago, probably getting impatient that UPS isn’t knocking down his door yet.
