I have often wondered what the field would look like if this actually happened in our field, as in would there be as many professionals in it? Some of this weed out should occur in programs and the rest at training sites in my opinion. I never stop being amazed at some of the horrible things I've heard said by people at the various stages of training, the almost licensed, and the newly licensed.

I suspect there would be way too much subjectivity in these theoretical determinations. These programs and training sites would quickly fold due to financial reasons after fighting unending lawsuits.

Invite to the Brooklyn VA.
They didn't offer me dates, just told me. Going to have to coordinate to change it.

Same here! I sent back a list of available dates all throughout January bc I was so afraid of them telling me another one that didn’t work for me. Maybe our dates will work out perfectly and they can switch us 🙂

was this a mass or personal email?

I think mass-it said "dear applicant" and 2 of my friends got it at the same time as me. Maybe they are going in waves though! or maybe if some people can't find an interview time that works for them (very well might happen for me) they will invite more people, good luck!

Which part do you mean? Do you mean the doling out of negative consequences for saying terrible things? I have definitely heard some troubling things in my master's level training but not in my doctoral training (at least within my specific program). I have heard troubling things while at prac, though nor typically from externs. Usually from the staff. So....
 
Has anyone scheduled their CVA for the BOPs? I have been waiting for a reply and followed up but have not heard anything....

Whoa. Do you know if this is happening at the other VA Puget Sound (American Lake) location as well? I have a few friends interviewing there.

I don't know anything about the situation, but I'm noticing that both accounts are new with one or two posts only. Could be a valid issue but could also be someone creating accounts because of a grudge.
 
Any news from Salt Lake City VA and Charles George VA?

I was told by an administrator what day my CVA will take place but was given no further details (I requested more today). Butner still has not confirmed what day they will be interviewing me.

Okay, yea, same here. I am waiting for Butner and Allenwood. I just scheduled my in-person interview for USMCFP Springfield but that is all I have so far. This is stressing me out........

SAME! It's literally the last thing I have left unscheduled and it's getting immensely frustrating.

Down to Butner. I’m hoping they get back to us today, so my anxiety can settle. Also, I talked to an HR rep about trying to find the location closest for the CVA but haven’t heard a word from anyone since to actually schedule. This has been such a long, nerve wrecking process.

Anyone hear from Kaiser Walnut Creek? I thought they were meant to be notifying today

I’m still waiting on them too! I have a friend interning there and rumor has it they were still reviewing applications into later this week, so sounds like the notifications will be sent out later rather than sooner.
