Anyone else getting phone calls from Program Directors? What are you saying when they call to express interest?

I've gotten 2. I basically said that I hadn't done my list yet (which was true at the time) and that they were totally still in the running. Now I'm just struggling over how high to rank them because of retirement issues.

Does anyone know when the deadline is for programs to put in their ranklists? Is it the same day as our deadline?

I've heard the program deadline is Monday the 20th, but I can't guarantee that.

I have received calls from 3 programs....and I said the same thing to all of them...basically that I really enjoyed my visit to their institution and that they were very high on my list, but I had yet to finalize any decision. All of which is true.

By the way Stephanie...I think I know who you are talking about with regards to the retirement issues...I got a call from them last week also.

Have you heard a timeline on that retirement? They have been recruiting a friend of mine to take the position, but she said no. I'm a little worried about whether they are talking over the next 2 - 3 years versus over the next 6 months, and I've heard both.
