Teach For America-2017 Corps

@spencer0613 maybe my interviewer meant to say new this year instead of this deadline. Anyway tomorrow can’t come soon enough

@GPSTFA
Uh… well that brings up some awkward questions then. I was 3rd cycle too and said how important it was for me to be placed there and also had special circumstances that’s weren’t honored and she told me that it was absolutely full and I had no chance of getting in…

She even told me that she double checked with the placement people

@northwesttfa well that’s kind of scummy :expressionless:

I’m teaching a stem subject so if that’s true I wonder if I was told that because they wanted a stem teacher in other regions… @GPSTFA I don’t mean to sound rude but can you offer some proof, like even in a private message? There probably isn’t much I can do about it now but if I was lied to I wouldn’t mind mentioning it in case it was a one off thing so it doesn’t happen to anyone else.

Yeah…not sure what happened there. I know there are about 20 open spots per year for WA and 3 got it for 3DL, which is ablut 1/6.

I did have some extenuating circumstances which precluded me from many regions (schedule wise) so that might have had something to do with it.

@GPSTFA I’m going to hope that maybe the spots were already reserved for people with extenuating circumstances because otherwise that’s pretty weird.

@northwesttfa I’m guessing. I doubt they would outright lie to you.

Hey everyone! I think my code has changed in the last hour, minor changes but definitely changes. Has anyone else noticed anything on their end? Does everyone still have the ASSIGNMENT code?

My code still says assignment. @spencer0613

@ssuTFA have you noticed any changes to the case codes at the bottom? - the code for the applicant center

@Infidelis my code says “FINALEVAL” under the timeline and not open. Im so nervous.

@ssuTFA What do you mean it doesn’t say open for you anymore?

@spencer0613 I dont see any. Where are you seeing changes?

@ssuTFA and @Infidelis On mine, I am still seeing assignment, and I don’t have any changes.

@Infidelis under the applicant disposition step it says “FINALEVAL”. Is that where you were seeing “open”?

@ssuTFA Nah, I meant name=“appStatus” value=“OPEN” but that isn’t the part that has changed for me. It says at the top of that block Status instead of Final Interview like it said before. There are also some case additions in the switch.

Don’t know if it means anything, just gathering information to see if you guys have the same

@Infidelis What additional case switches do you have?

@tfaMathHopeful lots of them, probably around 6 new ones at least
