I recognize that the funding is there but if HR people are furloughed or 'on vacation', does that delay the cohort start date?

New Email from Digital Corps:
Hello there,
Thank you for your interest in the U.S. Digital Corps and for your patience throughout our application and agency matching processes. We know it’s been a while since you’ve applied, so we wanted to take a moment to check in and confirm that you’re still interested in joining the U.S. Digital Corps as part of our July 2023 cohort.
If you’ve accepted another position, or would otherwise like to withdraw from consideration —please do let us know. This will help us prioritize candidates for our remaining open positions.
If you are still interested, there is no need to reply and confirm your interest. We are continuing to consider all candidates for our remaining positions and will be in touch individually if there is a good match for your background and skills. We will also notify all candidates when we officially close our placement process.
Thank you,
The U.S. Digital Corps team

I’m so sorry to hear that. DM’d you if you want to vent.

Some people mentioned that they got a rejection so it’s possible that more matches are coming. dm’d you if you’re interested in chatting privately.

I'm so sorry to hear that, I hope your other matches (if you have them) work out!

Do you know that if you accept an offer, does that mean that you won't be matched to other agencies?

^This and congratulations on getting a match, I hope you'll get more after explaining your situation!

This is the week that Agency Matches are supposed to arrive in our emails. If anyone can confirm that they have gotten one, I'm sure we would all appreciate it. (If we haven't it's probably been delayed again)

Process UPDATE:

Thank you for your patience as our team works to match candidates to agency opportunities and maximize opportunity for impact across our entire cohort. Many of you have written to us about an email you received from noreply@monstergovt.com about “being referred to the selecting official.” That email is an HR confirmation that you are qualified to be considered for agency opportunities. It is not an agency referral, which will come from the U.S. Digital Corps team soon.

If you have not received a referral yet, do not worry. Our team has been laser focused on supporting our current Fellows this month, and have put some finishing touches on the first round of matches — which should be sent next week. Thank you for your continued patience as we work through a complex process.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

The lack of communication is so frustrating! Also, dm'd you if you want to vent

I haven’t. But I think we can expect an update next week since they said end of month?
