I was also told that they could ask you to hold the box up to your camera
to show that it is unopened. And as was stated, they can track in the logs
when the puter logged in, came online and where you may have surfed in
the various apps even before you connect the ethernet cable.

It would really be a shame to be dismissed from the company because
directions were not followed. And I am quite sure they are a stickler for
rules, especially where it comes to being told don't do something.

Well as I said I will be setting it up. However, I never intended to plug it in. I want my office set up and ready.

I know I cant wait till a week to open the box and if we have to prove that the box wasnt opened prior to training my excuse will be I was just checking to make sure it wasnt a bomb or contraband because I am paranoid like that lol..

4 weeks of training 1 week on the job training taking calls not literally off.. but I think we will be off for XMAS because we are technically still in training until the 29th.
 
Anyone else being told a start date of January 28th? I began my process back in October and had my second interview last Friday. I received the email to schedule 3rd interview and took care of that (December 4th is what my option was). They have told me my start date is January 28th assuming I pass the final interview.

Is there a chance that start date gets moved back? I have ten years of tech/customer support experience for companies such as ASUS, Geek Squad and Support.com and my empathy is off the charts. I always handle the difficult customers because I have an uncanny ability to talk them off the ledge in a positive manner. Im not worried about the 3rd interview at all because I feel comfortable that I meet all the requirements both technically and in regards to empathy. That said the job market in my area is terrible and I have taken a manual labor job with Amazon making less than 50% of my former wage. I absolutely hate this job and would love to get away from it before January 28th!

Ive seen a few folks mention their start date being changed. Is this common? Id love nothing more than to be in the January 3rd class Ive seen mentioned in prior posts.

Our dates are near the same but I honestly can't remember exactly WHEN in January they stated would be my start. If it's the 28th .... oi!

I was also told the 1/28 class, if I pass all the steps. I've only had the 1st interview, 2nd is set for 12/6.

I asked my first interviewer specifically about what group and he told me it's part time and CPU. I told him that was cool with me.

From what I've seen here, start dates have been extended, but I don't recall any being changed to closer start dates.

Maybe someone else knows more.
 
So i Just spoke to my TM and she said the reason they dont want us to open the box is because they want us to get paid for setting up the equipment and thats the big reason why and also if I really want to buy a chair because of black friday sale that I should make sure that it is an ergonomic chair with adjustable height and arm or no arms(It CANT have a fixed arm) and will be working through the holidays they are trying to see if we can get a day off and she wouldnt tell me whats in the gift box lol 😱
