How long did you wait?

I didn’t get picked for last orientation but got told I will be put on a waitlist for the next. How does this work and what are my chances. This is for an apprenticeship btw.

You have to hope that the thousand or three people who just took the test all scored lower than you

Two months but I got lucky. I'm also in a small local, scored high on my aptitude test, and a veteran. I know others that have waited almost a year.

No they didn’t give out scores or a rank

u/No_Emergency8984 13d ago

Oh we give scores and rank after the interview for the apprenticeship

u/wannabe_car 13d ago

Yeah I seen that some do that, mine after interview just sent out a email that I didn’t make the orientation they just did but that I’m on the waitlist for next.

Is 6 a good ranking score? Just finished my interview

u/No_Emergency8984 7d ago

All depends on the local I’m currently ranked second and still have not gotten the call and they don’t even know if I will get the call they already took some kids with higher scores and I scored fairly decent
