Hello guys I'm Nick and I have a interview with local 63 out of Oklahoma city on Jan 28. I wanted to go to local 21 in DFW, but they haven't done a recruitment since Oct 2013. 63 and a local in Shreveport,LA where the only ones recruiting at the time I started studying the elevator trade. I hope all goes well with my interview, I fill confident that I will, but I will keep you guys informed on my results.

I have yet to receive any calls, and have been largely ignored when calling the local to check my status. No returned calls, no answer at all, etc

I'm still waiting here in Nashville. I call a couple times a month. Every time I call the rep jokes around and just seems down to earth. Always polite and tells me it shouldn't be much longer. Man I hope he's right. I think there's only 1 or 2 ahead of me. Fingers still crossed. Good luck ya'll! Interviewed last June so it's been almost a year.

I called the hall today and the rep told me that I should be getting the call in a few weeks. I can't wait.

For what I've been told...things have slowed here in Austin. Good luck

Don't mean to hijack this thread, but I figured I'd just reply here.
In September 2013 I started the process of busting into this trade (Chicago Local 2). The line (I was close to just walking away, that's how bad it was) wrapped around the Union Hall and down block; over 2000+ people applied throughout the month. 1700+ passed the test and sat for an interview. I was ranked in the 80's out of 1700. Two years passed of me checking my phone daily for a phone call; looking at this Texas thread and the others on here to try and look for any rumors. I never called the hall because I was too nervous I'd be blacklisted.
It finally happened. Got the call on Monday. And I didn't have an "In" either.
Looking forward to my next chapter.

Congrats man. I'm waiting on the call myself.

Figured I'd join up and get in the act. Waiting on a few interviews as we speak (Southwest and Midwest), studying my behind off and brushing up my resume.
Good luck folks.
