Yep! Gave a link to sign up for a time-slot on the days that they interview, but for some reason the time slots do not populate yet so I don't know if it is too early or what not.

Kings County District Attorney cancelled. I wonder if this was due to a lack of applicants?

Took my accepted interviews around 45 minutes to an hour to populate with times. Check back and on your main login screen there is a "tasks" page which will show your acceptances - click it then and sign up for a time. Congrats though!

From what I can tell, the jobs have different "Accepted Students Sign-up Open" dates; North Carolina PLS was dated 9/17; Clark County doesn't appear to be until 10/2.

Yeah?

Grab a beer and/or drink of your choice. First because you deserve it, and second because I heard that they are wonderful for those types of stomachaches.

BDS- Ding, not too sad about the ding itself just makes me anxious for what I know will be a bloodbath. Makes me 1-1 (Clark county interview already)

Anyone have any idea the number of interview slots available versus applicants for competitive pd offices like bds? I know it varies year to year and the offices might not release the number of applications received but anyone have an idea from a contact (or want to take a wild guess)?

From what I've gathered, very competitive - especially considering that PD offices attend other recruiting events and such. I think someone in last year's EJW thread said that Colorado's PD office received some 2-3K applications for around 60 spots.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
