RocketDriver Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 FYI for all who applied to the 121st in DC, an invite for their second-round video interviews just went out this afternoon. It's a bit unclear if this interview is the final board or a video pre-screen for the final board, but things are moving again. There were 124 applicants this year.

I’m a bit confused as they just sent an email on Wednesday saying we should expect to hear back by January. Did you get a call or email about the interview?

Did you get a call or email about the interview? I also received the Wednesday email stating that we should expect to hear by Jan 2021. It appears they followed up quicker than initially indicated. Wednesday's note was from a (I presume) recruiter, while today's follow-up interview invite came via email from two of the pilots in the squadron.

ayz33 Posted November 7, 2020 Posted November 7, 2020 I got nothing back from them since my application in February, until Wednesday and today. No first round. It seems like others may have already had some sort of interview?

Any advice form anyone or things to expect that you didn’t? I know that’s vague but just want to see if anyone has any insight or tips. Thanks! Guessing this is with the Okies? Im curious as to how it went and what the process was like!
fadeawaydave Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 Got the TBNT from DC today. Best of luck to the interviewees! 😎
thebleakmw Posted November 11, 2020 Posted November 11, 2020 Anyone who sat in on any of the VTANG zooms: can you recall if they said anything about emailing a pdf copy of the package or is it just the hard copy? Thanks in advance.

It was with the Okies. Like I said it was my first time at a meet and greet so I didn't really know what to expect. It went well though, myself along with other interviewees met at the visitor center outside the base in the morning and were escorted on. The majority of the day we spent at the squadron meeting pilots and anyone else around, introducing ourselves and talking about our interests in the Unit, etc. It was very laid back but got to hear some about the history of the squadron, the mission, the airframe, and got to tour around. All in all a great experience to get to meet a unit you are interested in and let them get to know you before the possibility of an interview.
LimaLowdown Posted November 14, 2020 Posted November 14, 2020 The 176th and 168th recently hired up in Alaska, anyone get interviewed or have experience with them?

Pilot214 Posted November 19, 2020 Posted November 19, 2020 Has anyone heard back from the Civil path to wings?

BlueSkyz Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 The CPW is having a validation in December (10-13) where you go to Texas and take a few tests to make sure you are qualified to skip a portion of UPT. Their next validation is feb possibly.
