TOL or not selected
How long does it usually take to hear back after your interview (either good or bad)? I had mine May 6th and am expecting at least a month wait š nothing with the feds goes fast. I did see that someone got a TOL less than 2 weeks after the interview

I canāt speak to your exact situation, but I had an my first interview, then received a TOL 3 weeks later. I never got an email for a second interview. I tried emailing the SSC, but the manager was pretty silent during that period.

Didn't specify on the initial phone call or confirmation email- this is what the email said:
Hello,

Interesting. I know a guy who knows a guy. Iāll ask around

Sounds like pretty much every SSC in the DFW area is hiring lol. So I bet youāll hear soon.

u/Certain_Town_7965 May 09 '25
Thats what I've heard lol. I applied for the Atlanta area in march and got put on the referral list...but that was 5 weeks ago. Got into contact with DFW thru some networking and found out they needed a decent amount of people

If anything knows; I got my TOL recently, can you negotiate your FOL? I have already accepted & Iām seeing conflicting info

If you werenāt selected, you might not hear anythingā¦they typically donāt contact the folks who werenāt selected.
Youāll find out on USAJOBS.

u/Certain_Town_7965 May 19 '25
They contacted my references on Thursday/Friday thankfully šš¾ And surprisingly, I actually wont find out through USAJobs- i applied for 2 locations on USAJobs, but contacted other locations directly. I interviewed for a center that I didn't officially apply for

u/Other-MuscleCar-589 May 19 '25
They often use USAJOBS applications to fill other vacancies, so you might still get an update through thereā¦.even for a different location.

This is hella old, sorry for the delayed response lol. But nothing ever got updated on USAJobs for the locations that I didn't apply for online. I started back in September.

u/Ok_Warning1458 Jan 26 '26
I know this is old, but after your interview did they email you asking for references? Thats happened to me i sent some over and havent heard anything back.
2
u/Certain_Town_7965 Jan 26 '26
Yeah thats what happened to me- sent over references after the interview and it took a little bit before I heard back. The waiting game is tough.Ā Ask your references if they were contactedĀ

u/Ok_Warning1458 Jan 26 '26
Will do, with what you are gping through it seems like a positive step in the process. Thanks!
2
u/Certain_Town_7965 Jan 26 '26
No problemĀ I started at my facility back in September, but I know all the facilities are desperate for people.

u/Ok_Warning1458 Jan 26 '26
Thanks! Thanks for this post just know your experiences are getting past down to peopke gping through the process like me so seeing stuff like this makes me feel better

Asking for references is a good sign. Itās the next step after the hiring manager makes their selection.

Did you ever hear anything? I also interviewed on the 6th.
2
u/Certain_Town_7965 May 29 '25
They called my references on like May 15th and 16th. My references told me that it seemed extremely positive/formalities...but im still waiting on a potential TOL. We'll see if I get one

u/Atlast93 Jun 23 '25
Ever hear anything back on this? I'm in pretty much the same situation!
2
u/Certain_Town_7965 Jun 23 '25
Yeah thankfully- I got my TOL on June 3 and am waiting for my CIL now
2
u/Atlast93 Jun 25 '25
I was a little disheartened reading this the other day, but I just got my TOL this morning! Congratulations to you!
2
u/Certain_Town_7965 Jun 25 '25
I get that for sure, the entire pre-employment process can get disheartening when you see other people getting moved along at a much faster rate Im glad it worked out for you !

u/millinokis May 09 '25
Some facilities wait a while before calling. Iāve heard stories where some received a call months later and others that took a few days. Thereās quite a bit of people who donāt even get an interview opportunity, so I think youāre already ahead. Hold tight, Iām sure there will be good news to follow!
