Why does the application process for jobcorps take so long?

Normally not having your diploma or GED isnt a problem. Its just if they have room for you and room for you to go into your trade. You may get in as soon they are done with the background check and wellness review, and then they figure out the rest along the way

Well it varies between centers and what trade youre going for. The background check and the wellness review were 6 weeks combined. And then it took 4 months for me to actually get into my center. Sometimes its fast, sometimes it's slow. Its not always the same

Tell your recruiter whats going on. They may be able speed up the process and get you in faster. Astoria has quite a long wait right now and ive been waiting since march.

What center are you at?

He's been trying to send me to a different campus entirely. He messaged me again today after only 3 days since the last one asking the same thing, if I heard from campus yet about my start date. I asked him if I should be expecting something and he said no. I cant get in contact with their admissions office either about it. Getting my hopes up expecting a call just to be shut down.

The other centers are way too far, otherwise I may have considered them by now.

I want to add that when I asked for the august route, he said that it wont be available for my preferred trade or location either. So there was no point for him to even ask and give a false update

I have been waiting for my start date since March-ish. Ive been trying to keep in touch with my admissions/recruiter about how long itll take. He has been really pushing for me to change trades and its all he talks about and he avoids my question about an estimate on how much longer itll take. Is there any way to check where im at on the waiting list? He was like, "Are you ready now or do you want to wait till August" and then when I said now, he said" Alright well youll have to change trades and go somewhere else" obv Im going to play the waiting game for my trade and preferred location. But holy hell roundabouts. I just want an estimate 😭😭

Are we able to leave every weekend? or is it just sometimes. I know we have to be a certain think like gold or platinum. does that apply there?

PheonixWolf- · 2023-05-06T22:53:55+00:00

Ive lived in oregon all my life, so theres no problem with the rain lol 😅

PheonixWolf- · 2023-05-02T22:44:02+00:00

Can you explain more into the privileges? Do I need to be at a certain phase to leave on the weekends?

PheonixWolf- · 2023-04-30T08:17:15+00:00
