They do. They didn't call all of mine, but they did call some.

Thanks! If you don't mind me asking, when was your CB and have you heard back yet?

My turnaround was a Tuesday to a Friday but I was an older year, not this year

I know they called my first two references for a fact - haven't been in contact with my third to check and see if they called her.

Screener --> CB was Tuesday to Friday from DC. Haven't had my CB yet, so I can't tell you anything there.

i assume that they want to check before so they don't waste attorney time/travel if you don't hack it.
