During the online PA Fair today they stated that interview invites will likely start going out in August

Thanks for sharing! Did they happen to say why they’re sending it out that early?

edit: oh, nvm haha! Went through some old posts and they usually do send out invites/rejections mid-August!

Oh god, I haven't used my linkedin in god knows how long I hope it's updated lol. 

Edit: The answer is no. But I saw no history of them viewing my profile

Yeah, I mean I dont know if it is something they do for every applicant or if it was just a coincidence because I was visiting Portland at the time they viewed it. My guess is that I was maybe being viewed because I was in Portland and the hospital system saw me. But I have no idea, just thought it was interesting

I literally started my free 1 month trial to unlock who is viewing my profile (cancelled after because no one has cash for that)! For me I didn't see anyone looking except my friends & colleagues... so who knows!

I suppose the "no news is good news" adage is fitting in this instance!

For those with rejections, are you guys from Oregon?

Nope, I am from Colorado! They're clearly looking for something specific, there has been a wide range of diverse yet rejected applicants today!

Holy cow! all these amazing applicants with amazing stats getting rejected is churning my stomach!!! : (

Same my stomach is turning. I am also amazed how they said they are looking at holistic applicants. Which puts us all in the same boat.

Those of you who got rejections today sound like really strong applicants, I’m sure you’ll get interviews elsewhere! 

I didn’t get anything today, but I applied later than most of you (July 11th). I’m located in Northern California. 

I applied pretty late (around the same time as you) too, so i'm sure it'll be a bit before it cycles down to me!
