Happened to me multiple times. Try to use your phone, or some other device. I accidentally scheduled for 3. I think too many of us are trying to sign up
this worked--thank you!

I tried scheduling for april 1st at noon but it gave me a different day and time, I just decided to keep it rather than messing with it more.

Yes. My page stayed on "loading..." for a while, so I closed the page, re-did everything, and quickly got a confirmation page/email the second time.

My dreams are crushed by this thread today... No interview request at all and I submitted over a month ago. I guess I'm not getting one, which is a huge bummer. But good luck to you all! :) Maybe I'll see ya in LS.

Someone earlier in this thread had the same issue before they directly e-mailed SEO to figure out what's going on

So I'm guessing everyone who had a first interview got invited to a second interview, meaning this isn't really an indication of being a good or bad thing?

I did my interview this morning, it was only 10 minutes as the interviewer was running late, and within a few hours got an email for the second interview. I am really questioning if everyone gets interviewed twice or if you have to make it past the first round just based on how quick the turnaround was for the second interview.

No it was with the original person. I just got the email for the interview with the new director less than 2 hours after I finished the first interview.
