kellspi Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Do you all live in Hawaii? Also I saw some other groups do zoom meetings beforehand if anyone is interested in doing that! Might be helpful!:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faasalia Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Hi Kellspi, I live on Oahu. Where do you live? And I'd be interested in a zoom meeting before hand. I think getting to know each other before would be super helpful as well. Thanks for the great idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellspi Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I live in Oahu too actually!! I feel like it’d be good to calm some of our nerves before hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyS Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Hello all, I also received an invite to interview. Doing a little zoom meeting beforehand sounds like a great idea to get to know each other and maybe calm the nerves a bit. I have heard that it will be group interviews and we will breakout into different groups throughout the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellspi Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Congrats! Oh really? So is there no one on ones? Or am I misinterpreting that? I’m thinking sometime the week of if that works for everyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faasalia Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Congrats everyone! I've read over some different forums and the format I read about so far is that there will be 2 interviewers and 3 applicants for each interview and that there will be 3 of those throughout the day. Not exactly sure how accurate that is but it will definitely help to get to know each other a little before the big day. The week of works for me if that works for everyone too.

kellspi Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Okay so assuming there’ll be 9 of us! How is everyone prepping? Thinking of getting a mock interview right now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faasalia Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I'm doing a mock interview as well! And practicing with family and friends. What day and time of that week works best for everyone to meet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjasman1 Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 Hey everyone! I think a Zoom meeting would be perfect the week of the interview. I look forward to meeting you all! I will message you all to get your emails for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devinh Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Heya! I'll be seeing all of you on the 5th and I'm very excited! I'd love to be apart of the zoom to get to know you guys a bit before the interview. I just had another interview where it was a 2 on 2, and it was lovely to have the camraderie of another applicant in the "room". Congrats, Y'all! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prelon Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Aloha everyone, I'm Prey and I'm in Kona class 1. If anyone has questions feel free to reach out. Best of luck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faasalia Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Hi Prey! Thank you so much! I just had a few questions about the interview process. Was your interview over zoom as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prelon Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Hey! Our interviews were in-person. What you pointed earlier in the thread was what we did: 2 candidates plus yourself and 2 interviewers and you'll have a total of 3 separate interviews. Between each interview you'll get to mingle with other candidates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LenMar Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hi everyone! Congrats on making it up to this point. I received my invitation a few days ago as well and I would love to join in on the Zoom meeting. Hopefully it'll calm some of my nerves before the interview.

Faasalia Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Thanks so much prey! This will be my first time interviewing much less virtually so that really helps to know a little beforehand to calm these crazy nerves. And LenMar, try messaging Cjasman1 about the zoom meeting. I believe she is setting it up and getting everyone's emails. So far we're looking at 11/29. Looking forward to meeting you all 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellspi Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Is anyone else freaking out? Just over a week till we meet each other/interview! just checking in on everyone to see how we're all doing? excited for everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyS Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Definitely exciting/ nerve racking. Are we still planning on meeting Sunday? I am definitely down, but I am currently located in France, 11 hours ahead of Hawaii time So if it is possible I would prefer sometime in the morning Hawaii time or late enough in the evening so that I can wake up early Monday to join the call. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
