I understand the COVID situation has surely impacted the process, and it would be very helpful to have some information or update. If one has passed this portion of the process, and will be invited to an oral assessment when safe–or has not passed–just that information would be appreciated. Thank you.

But you should of gotten notified if you met the minimum score or requirement to move to QEP a long time ago.

I have checked spam folder.

I recently emailed the DSRecruiting email and have not yet heard anything back. I’m not sure what to think at this time.
