Line 39:

In general, we do not schedule interviews with specific people at a specific time. Just join the queue when you can. Our POs are volunteers and they work on the queue around their schedules. There may be rare cases where this isn't true, but we'll approach you about scheduling an interview if we feel it is appropriate.

==~~Is there anything that can hurt~~ my ~~place~~ in the ~~Interview~~ Queue?==

==I'm in the Interview Queue and my number in the Queue keeps changing, moving me back and such. Is it broken?==

~~There sure~~ is~~! If~~ you're in the ~~queue but you are not actively watching the E-Uni public chat channel, you might miss seeing~~ your ~~name being called~~. ~~If this happens, some folks may skip over you for~~ some ~~time~~ in the ~~future. Close the browser or leave the queue when you won't be watching every few minutes~~.

No. The Queue tool assigns all applicants who've successfully submitted their questionnaire a timestamp. It is by this timestamp that applicants who are logged into the Interview Queue are ordered.

For example; you find yourself sitting at #2 and then notice you're now #4: two applicants with earlier timestamps have logged into the Interview Queue. The Queue tool remember's your timestamp. This way it's fair to everyone applying. There are some applicants who will get priority no matter their relative spot to yours in the Queue (such as War re-entries).

==How will I know when it's my turn for an interview?==
