When do they have to hand out a decision by?

Well they don't have to stick to their schedule, but they said to expect a decision between 8-10 weeks after completion. AND if you were complete before 12/01, they said to count 12/01 as the starting date for those 8-10 weeks. Tomorrow will be 10 weeks past 12/01, which is also the normal day of the week they release decisions.

Johann tweeted out a bunch of pastries and said "don't call between 11-12". Did they bring the pastries in for a long day of releasing admits? Do they really not want us to call because they'll be in a conference room making dozens of decisions? Have I gone mad from waiting?

While I really hope it's related to a giant wave of decisions the pastries themselves look like they're for Fat Tuesday

Do people eat things that aren't King Cake today? That's the saddest thing I've ever heard.

Hi everyone!

I submitted on 1/4 but requested an interview so it's been sitting on incomplete. I haven't yet received an interview request. I should just wait it out, right? nothing to worry about?

Seems to be a Chicago thing?

Hopefully it's in addition to a King Cake and not a replacement.

I think they're technically a few days late according to Polish tradition, but they're probably celebrating Paczki Day today as sometimes happens in Chicago where there is a large Polish community: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C4%85cz ... 85czki_Day

It's my understanding you seek it out, I did an on site interview I signed up for online, and I believe the video interview can be done at any time. Someone who did that will probably have better advice.

To my knowledge I think almost all in persons are done, so you'll need to video interview.

I would if my Twitter name was more anonymous. It's essentially my whole name.
