    still waiting post-interview with Travers. Anybody know how long they usually take to PFO or offer? Also, please tell me they don't PFO over the phone. That sounds very awkward.

    4/4/4/1 on Arctic Shores 😭 Am I cooked? I'm not sure if they total the points to screen candidates or have a set threshold for each category.
