Seriously!
With the 100's if not 1000's of applicants already in the pool NATIONWIDE, what difference does it really make with this "new" coming open period... and if there are classes coming up @ FLETC (so what?)... there have been classes going on, just not as many people/classes as before (when we had the push a couple of years ago) when they where double stacking people on rooms! You guys can try to see some light at the end of the tunnel, trying to figure out this process, GOOD LUCK!... Don't look for hope, simply move on as if you never applied, and if the call comes then good if it doesn't at least you gave it a shot.
Any announcements in the future and hiring for that matter will most likely be for the SWB, because of the highly politicized illegal immigration issue at the SWB, that's where politicians are willing to send money for "their" gain!... Every one of us that has been waiting for years for other ports, not on the SWB, will probably never get a call in the near future. I have been in this process for years now, and in that time I have left other opportunities go by, because I was waiting on CBP and yet here I am years later still waiting, but I have taken some new opportunities in past year for myself and planning on others as well since the chances of being picked up in the near future are so bleak. I have been afraid of making a move where I'll be in the middle of doing that and all of a sudden I get a call from CBP with an offer... well that scenario had to be kicked out of my thought process to be able to move along, and I suggest all of you do the same.
End of Rant!....

I understand you want to bring the hopes up of us in the process, but telling us that a new academy will be scheduled @ FLETC means nothing to hiring all over the country, unless you work at MHC and can give us the "factual" 411... don't even bring it up. Cause all you'll get is irrelevant questions from people looking for a glimpse of hope that you obviously can't give!... Thank you for the initiative, but this kind of info should simply be mentioned in passing and not as NEWS for applicants.
