With bid lists out later this week/early next week for CCBA, I thought it might be useful to start a thread to share info as things progress.

If the last couple years are any indication, don't count on getting anything next week.

Especially since they pushed back the bidding deadline multiple times this year. I just hope they release it before our OCI bid window closes.

They said around July 4, so I'm hoping that's true. I'm hoping I can see the CCBA screeners before submitting my bids for OGI next Friday. Guess I'll just have to cross my fingers and hope for the best.

They're, umm, not the best at sticking to deadlines. I'll be shocked if we get the results by next Friday; I'd start planning on not getting them and figuring out how you want to bid for OGI in light of that.

They don't do the whole being on time thing even when it's not a national holiday. I'll be very surprised if they stick to today's deadline. I'm betting on hearing July 9th.

July 9th would still give me time to adjust OGI bids, so I'm ok if that turns out to be the case. They do seem to work on weekends though if previous emails are any indication.

Ugh, tagging along on this hot mess of a job fair

[Anonymous User]

Everything else asides from the last e-mail said July 7th, I'm willing to bet the July 4th was just a typo or something, seemed to be an odd date.

Caught this while re-reading their June 14 dates and info e-mail:

We plan to generate your initial interview schedules on or before the week of July 7, 2014.

So, no point in getting revved up today, they gave themselves the entire week to get schedules out (and who knows if they'll even keep to that!).

I guess that means we can expect schedules on Friday.

You never know! Maybe Wednesday will work. Also, did you really need to post that anonymously?

[iheartmonkey]

If we don't get our schedules tomorrow... it wouldn't surprise me.

[lhanvt13]

ugh, the first email we get related to CCBA is a voluntary self-identification thing...
I got excited...

[cookiejar1]

Am I doing this wrong or does Foley expect us to voluntarily upload an entire application to their career portal and THEN self identify? Because if that's the case: lol no

[bananasplit19]

lol no

TITCR.

[iheartmonkey]

The Foley email psyched me out as well.

[Yardbird]

Did everyone get the Foley email? Or just people who weren't preselected?

ETA: I guess we'll find out soon enough. I got the email fwiw.
