simplemathtome Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I know that there is a 3/4 chance that I wasn't selected for the first interview, but they said I would be contacted in "Mid-November" and I think we're past the middle of November. Has anyone else heard anything? If you applied in the past and got an interview, when were you contacted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finnegans_cake Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I mean...you're probably right. But, if we're finding reasons to hold out hope: it may have to do with field and region - they have to find an alumnus first who can fly to do the interview. In my case at least, there are less than 5 Hertz alumni in my field - and probably not many currently in the South. Just some possibilities at least.

finnegans_cake Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 simplemathtome: Sorry to hear that. Just one last random question: did you get an email or a physical letter? Just curious what I should be looking out for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quadsbaby Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 As I understand it, all those offered first round interview received email, all those rejected got snail mail. If you haven't gotten anything yet, I'm pretty sure it's a reject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
