I'm taking the final exam this AM and it's off to the phones tomorrow. I can only remember a fraction of the stuff we covered in class but at least I have a handle on looking stuff up in the kb.
Nothing like drinking from a fire hose.
Good luck, let me know how it goes.

I was the one sent a rejection letter before my background was completed. My BG was unverifiable due to a small county not complying with the request for court records in regards to a speeding ticket. WELL, today I get a call that said I'm being offered the job. I start with apple on 11/5 and couldn't be happier. I've been so sad all week and this call made my day!
Finally huh? Congrats! You'll enjoy the training chaos.

Almost aced the final but since they are pass/fail it doesn't really matter. The tests are not THAT hard, assuming you listen in class, go through the self guided training and most of all, have the ability to research quickly. The quickest way to get promoted on this job is to have great customer service skills, having a ton of technical knowledge won't help you much at all other than to cut down your call time.

My timeline:

9/24 - Applied online
9/26 - Received questionnaire in email which I promptly filled out and sent back
9/27 - Completed 1st interview over phone
9/27 - Received email after phone interview scheduling me for 2nd one on 9/28
9/28 - Did 2nd interview over FaceTime
9/28 - Received email prompting me to fill out more paperwork and schedule my 3rd interview
10/04 - Completed 3rd interview over Skype
10/04 - Received HireRight background check email
10/10 - Called HireRight and spoke with representative who confirmed my background was 100% complete
10/11 - Emailed recruiter asking for a possible update

So I currently am in limbo like the majority of you. I was informed that I was to be a part of the 11/5 class. Emailed my recruiter today so hopefully will hear something back either today or tomorrow.
