Has anyone received an interview invitation yet?
I haven’t heard anything so far, but I saw a post saying someone was invited, so I was wondering if interview requests have already gone out.

evpalmtree · Jan 28, 2026

I haven’t heard anything yet either! From what I saw last year they sent them out last week of January through first week of February, so fingers crossed!
