I couldn't imagine waiting 2 months. It's been 5 days since my interview and I'm already anxious.

It's definitely testing my patience having to wait this long, I can say that! I finally got in touch with someone today, and they should have offers ready by the end of next week. With that being said, I'm assuming the latest I would know would be May 8th, which is a week after the selection process should be over. At this point, I'm hoping my last post in this thread will be good news

I interviewed for a NLO position about a week and half ago and yesterday I was contacted by HR asking for copies of my degrees. I can't help but think this is a good sign, thinking that they wouldn't ask for these if they weren't going to send out an offer, but the pessimist side of me begs to differ. Has anyone had a similar experience?

Lethological · « **Reply #28 on:** Apr 28, 2015, 01:14 »

I would think that's a good sign. The only other situation like that I've heard of is someone getting a tour of the plant after their interview. They eventually received an offer.

On a related note, I was notified about my offer last week!

All that's left is dotting the i's and crossing the t's (obtaining a clearance, physical, etc). Be confident, be friendly, and prove that you would be a valuable asset. Those were my goals going in, and it paid off. I'm looking forward to the new career

Stay at it. Keep your heads up and attitudes good. TVA offered me a job during an interview and said the formal offer was on the way. Then it took two months.

Bob_Buck · « **Reply #30 on:** Apr 30, 2015, 12:24 »

Congrats Lethological!

I just received and accepted my offer yesterday! I'm very excited to start my new career. Now I just have to find somewhere to live

.

I also want to thank everyone that contributes to this forum. I have been lurking on here for the past 18 months and the information I have obtained from reading all the various posts have been great. This forum was very beneficial and I think it definitely helped me land the job. I hope that one day I will be able to contribute like many of you have and help someone else land a job in the nuclear industry.

Thanks again!

Do yourself a favor. Go to Wellington and eat at the Wellington Pizza House, the best pizza in the US

....Six tables in a Main Street storefront two four seaters, one six seater, and three eight seaters. Established in 1966, there is a stamped tin ceiling painted dark brown without a trace of dust to be seen anywhere on that ceiling. The place is as clean as a nunnery.

Good pizza, we went for the mushroom, ham and tomato on a 16" pie, it's a thin crust style. We opted out of the onions as they tend to overwhelm and mask the subtler pleasures of pizza. I love onions on pizza but it's nice to know it was a good pizza before I massacre it with my favorite pizza topping.

Aunt Carmen was not there at 1930 on a Wednesday night, but the staff was nice and service was prompt, the fried raviolas were pleasant and the water was potable which is not all that common in North Central Ohio. We took home a pepperoni calzone for a family member who opted to stay home, a bit smallish by New York pizzeria convention but then all those New York calzones have not helped me maintain my girlish figure over the years either.

The calzone in Wellington is reminiscent of scacciata for those who have enjoyed such.

The stay at home judged the calzone to be good also.

If you're working DB, either restaurant is a good stop while enjoying North-Central Ohio....

So has anyone moved on to their next steps? Know how many people are in your class? Have you taken the fire brigade physical? Any information that you can offer about what all has transpired and anything new that has happened or what you can expect in the near future as far as schedule?

Here is my somewhat recent experience with the next steps as far as Exelon goes,
Received an offer around 9/2013, Fire brigade physical and clearances were given out about a month prior to starting. I started beginning of February where after a week or so we (my EO class of 10) rolled into GFES training. After GFES, we went to Fire Brigade training for a little over a week. Systems training was after that where, you guessed it, we learned about all of the plant's systems... So from my start of Feb until Aug we were in classroom training for the most part with weekly exams. In August we had an OJT portion of training where we went on shift with our crews to learn specific tasks and get more familiar with the plant. In January, most of us were qualified EOs. So about a year in total from the start date, did we become fully functional EO/NLOs.

If you're still looking Clinton Power Station is looking to hire another new EO class in January I believe. Job posting is on Indeed. Good luck

Hi, I'm wondering if there is an updated list of plants hiring. Also does anyone know the pay raise step schedule for Duke plants?

revpotsy · « **Reply #43 on:** Oct 16, 2017, 09:04 »

does anyone know of any 2018 hiring for non-license operators? i have 8 year nuke experience, 2 masters degree, and a DOE clearance. Thanks!

TVA · « **Reply #44 on:** Oct 16, 2017, 09:19 »

OR you could check the utility websites.

Hey i have a question why does exelon do two drug tests? and are they the DOT 5 panel? Some people i heard were saying that Exelon was doing hair testing. but that's doesn't sound right. Can you please confirm that misconception. Thank you

MMM · « **Reply #47 on:** Oct 21, 2017, 10:12 »

Does it matter? If you want to work there, you agree to submit to them, if you don't agree, you won't work there (there's another post chain about that). If they want to spend more money for extra tests, let them.

TVA · « **Reply #48 on:** Oct 22, 2017, 03:00 »
