sh'liach k'hilah
Mar. 11th, 2004 06:51 pmFor the past couple days I've been expecting to receive the self-addressed stamped postcard I included with my application packet. Tomorrow's the application deadline, and I mailed it with the expectation of having the card back before the deadline (just to confirm that everything's ok, y'know, 'cause I'm a little paranoid that way), so I was growing slightly concerned.
The next step after the application, according to the literature, is a phone screen.
I came home to a phone message that I've been accepted. Woo hoo! Apparently my application was strong enough (the rabbi who called used the word "fantastic") that they're skipping the phone screen. :-)
I am so looking forward to this! They'll be mailing me a packet with all the details.

Date: 2004-03-12 10:49 am (UTC)I'd bet that the majority of their candidates simply haven't put that kind of time and thought into their applications.
I can believe that; I'm pretty picky about things like this. I wonder how many people actually applied; the application process sent the clear message that they expect you to put some thought into this, but that doesn't mean everyone does. In theory it could have been approximately one per UAHC congregation (or one per rabbi, perhaps), but I assume it was much lower than that. (I'm also curious about how many they accepted, but if nothing else I'll learn that in July.)
