My recruiter gave me a call and outlined everything pending the BCG.. been waiting on that to finish for a week now.. getting anxious for it to be official!
Nice! I hope everything flows well for you! I had FaceTime interview Wednesday and I'm waiting for the call, hopefully I get a call Monday or Tuesday!
Did my paperwork call and get my official documents Dec. 2 for a start date of Jan. 5th! If you're in my training class hit me with the PM and we can start a group message or something!
Yeah I'm in January 5th class! I'm getting my paperwork on Dec 2nd! Im excited!!
Really?? I have been working for Apple for over a year now and still love, have loved it from the beginning. Not sure which job you do but I do iTunes chat so maybe that's why? I think it depends on what position you're in as well. I don't plan on going anywhere for a long time! 
From the training to my manager I love all of it.

Just got my paperwork!! It says for one year agreement. I know in order to be extended they look at performance. But do they usually extend it? I want to work for Apple as long as possible.
Hi all.
I`m new to this forum but I have been reading for all 78 pages just like you guys lol I just got official offer for AHA!! Just waiting for new hiring phone session. I would like to know about scheduling and time off holidays.
I`m so happy that I got this position but I would like to know certain things.
1 How often does schedule change? I understand that you won`t have weekend off unless its you assigned.
2 Can you get PAID holiday off or if you work on holiday (your regular shift) do you get double pay or time and half? (holiday rate) How hard to get holiday off?
3 If you work on holidays, will you get extra day off later that day?
Thanks

HELP HELP HELP THANK YOUHardware For At home advisor
Hello ALL!!! You guys rock, and give awesome advise. Question. What exactly is the hardware requirements for the at home advisor position. I have my second interview coming up. i was told that is has to hardwired, or plugged directly in to a modem, not wifi. The thing is, is that my Mom works from home too. So, does it have to be plugged right in to the wall, or can i just get a super long cord from the modem, to the other office in the house? I would have to add an extra phone line too with no additions? (call waiting, etc) Please help me to understand. Thank you.

I helped my boyfriend apply for a WAH position with Apple. It was sometime last month. I'm heartbroken he hasn't heard back from them. He already works at home.
Does anyone here have any suggestions on what more he can do? It's been well over a month. Is this atypical?

Internet going down...
Question for someone currently in a At Home Advisor position, what happens if your internet goes down? Do you have to get a business line? i know with residential service they have no obligation to get it up and running. If there's a bad storm, or just a general outage. Vs. business services they are obligated via contract to get the internet back as soon as they can. Is Apple flexible with internet issues?
----------
Hope you do awesome on your interview!!

Just wondering
When looking at the job postings on the apple page, would chat support be listed differently?
Or is it all just listed under AHA and they decide during the interview/review process?
Thank you for any help available and happy holidays!

and happy holidays!Any one starting on feb 16 Spanish crew by the way how long did background take for some of you.
Internet connections)if it something like support.com they know that internet or electricity can go down so don't sweat it. Regular internet is fine.
For me I apply in August and got call in October had the job for November but had vacation plan out then they called me back in December and now I start in Feb so it can take sometime to get that first call.

For scheaual it's going to be all on metrics best metrics goes first then so on. Holiday there called floating holiday means you take them when you want but there is a catch major holidays are black listed so you can't request them but if you are top 10% there is exceptions.

...My background check only took a couple of days. It shouldn't take that long. Thank you for the info.

It will be interesting, (if the application goes far enough) if they can match my current hourly rate in AUD.
Worried BGC
So I was a freelance writer for a company called Patch.com and I put the in the previous employment section. I started BGC on Dec. 29th and received an email from Hireright to get info from my previous employer, since Patch.com paid me from PayPal I called them for a copy of my payment information from Patch.com. I'm so scared because they have to mail it and it's going to take 72hrs to receive. Should I be stressing or what is that to long to make Hireright wait? Thanks for all the posts by the way it's nice to know if I do get the job I'll have a community to discuss things with. Also anyone know what Imac you are given to work with? Good luck to all still in the interview process and congrats to all those who have been hired. I am scheduled to be in the Jan. class hope I meet some classmates here.
