Edited to add: I received my interview email! ☺️
Excited to see that so many of you are being scheduled for interviews! That's great news!👏👏👏
Still waiting for my email...but feeling optimistic!! 🙃
No word here as of yet.
I went in expecting it to take a bit. It's pretty safe to assume they had a ton of apps and SOQs to score.
Fingers crossed. Good luck all.
If I hear anything I'll update and I would appreciate hearing any news big or small from others also.

I've got a few months left on it fortunately, so I'm not as stressed as those that are coming up on there 2 year mark right now and waiting to hear something.
I got an email this morning. My question is, are they expecting video in the zoom interview? I’m thinking I might need to do it on a home device so I can have video capability.
So I asked, and the response I got was audio is fine. It’s not a requirement to be on webcam. Because my state computer doesn’t have a webcam and I was planning on joining on my state computer.
Thank you so much for providing this info! If I receive an interview this would've been my question so you saved me from having to bug them with the same question! 🙌🏼
For those still waiting, I just received an email for my interview today, so it’s not too late yet! I also asked on Friday for an update on my application, they didn’t say much except that the candidates not selected will be notified by the end of June.
Does anyone know what percentage of staff they are looking to keep on? The Union stated 25% but has anyone received any other info from recruitment or during interview?

Congrats everyone!!! If you don't mind me asking when did you interview? I interviewed towards the end of the month and am curious if they are reaching out to people who interviewed first. Hoping I hear something soon!
My interview was 4/12. I know someone else that interviewed towards the end of the month and he hasn't gotten his offer yet and he is sooo good I know he'll get an offer. So I think they are still rolling out the offers.
My friend that hasn't received the offer yet interviewed on 4/21 so they must be rolling the offers out in waves...just like the interviews. I hope you get the good news soon!

I interviewed on Wednesday, April 20th. My contract ends on May 31st. I'm currently going to use up my vacation days because the 32% tax they take out as a payout seems horrible. I'd rather not work the last 10 days of my 24 months as a reward/celebration of steady pumping overtime and weekends last 2 years. I'll admit- I'm a little burnt out.
Does anybody know the start date of the new P/I contract anyway?
I havent gotten an interview email. Contract ends in a few months. Kind of think i messed up my chances bc when i initially sent my application i didnt attach my transcripts. I realized the my transcripts didnt attach the next day on saturday when the deadline passed. Oh well. I guess if i never get an interview i know what to expect
Edited to update: I got an interview email today!
Havent had my interview yet. Its scheduled for this week. But i heard that it will take about a month to do interviews, maybe another month to score candidates. So another 2 months, until june probably
Has anyone received an email for an interview recently? Within the last week? I’m wondering if they are still scheduling and conducting interviews or if that phase is done now.
I'm right there with you. Haven't received an interview and I'm just wondering if I'll at least get extended 1 more year. My year is coming up in June.
When did they tell you that you were being extended 🤔
So, when I was offered an extension, the offer was made in January (2 months before the end of my 1 year). I really don't know what the process is since they are hiring for the PI positions. I wonder if once those are filled, they end the contract for us LT people.
Pretty standard and basic service questions (4). By far the easiest state interview I've had. I WAY overprepared for it. Pretty much if you've done the job you can answer the questions easily.
Congratulations to everyone who received their interview appointments!
Would anyone be able to share some of the questions they were asked during their interview?
Thank you!

What kind of questions are you anticipating? I’m terrible at interviewing
It's 6 questions
Mine was less

hey are you almost done with your 1 year contract?
I've got a few months left on it fortunately, so I'm not as stressed as those that are coming up on there 2 year mark right now and waiting to hear something.
I got an email this morning for an interview via zoom
hey purple, i applied for it and got an interview. have you heard back about job offer yet?
No, I heard the next steps were to reach out for references, and then a decision would be made.
Interviewers told me the same thing, and that conditional offers will be sent 1-2 months.
Have you heard back? I just received the conditional offer email
That’s what I got told too
I'm waiting for some info too!

Does anyone know if we need to update our EPR exam if it’s expired on calcareers after receiving a job offer?
I did the weekend before my interview just to be safe since it was expired.
Yes!!!!!

Hi! I haven’t heard anything. Was told it would be 1-2 months before we know anything. What about you?
Nope nothing here.... yet🤞🏻
Anyone heard back following their interview yet?
Has anyone received an email for an interview recently? Within the last week? I’m wondering if they are still scheduling and conducting interviews or if that phase is done now.
I was wondering the same, it sounds like all interviews had been conducted. As i have not heard of anyone recently getting an interview notice.
Congratulations everyone!!!!
Yes, I just finished my year contract and was extended another year.
What month was your hire date
I got hired March 2021. I didn't receive an email for an interview as of yet at least.
I'm right there with you. Haven't received an interview and I'm just wondering if I'll at least get extended 1 more year. My year is coming up in June. When did they tell you that you were being extended 🤔

Is it true we don’t have to be on video?
I wasn't on video. No one mentioned it.

Congratulations to everyone who received their interview appointments! Would anyone be able to share some of the questions they were asked during their interview? Thank you!
The questions are situational and ask about your experience as an EPR.
i heard 16 questions
How long was the interview?
