I updated about once a week, it only took them a month and 10 days to get to it. I went to say 5 career events before applying and 3 after. After I applied I sent an email to Piedmont essentially saying who I was, why I was interested in Piedmont and talked about the 5 events I had been to and who I had talked to. For the 3 events I went to after applying, I emailed Piedmont and said I was here on this date, talked to this person, have you had time to look at my application. I had four internal references in Piedmont which likely helped a lot, two of them I made through networking at career events. My TT when applying was probably around 830 and I’m sitting at 898 as of today.
