To answer a couple of the messages on here, I don't think anyone really knows what is going on, but I will tell you what I know.
Yes LOR's really do help. And even more than just the LOR, if you have a friend that works at EJA and is willing to go to bat for you, have them stop in and hand cary an LOR and also put in a good word with Jerry or Linda. The best thing you can have going for you is someone inside pushing and doing all they can to promote your success.
This is what I've heard (again, I don't think it is set in stone). They have somewhere in the neighborhood of 700 applicants that they want to interview by the end of year. If you received a letter like mine you will get an interview. Right now they don't have the recources to keep up with the interviewing and hiring that needs to be done. Hiring will continue through the end of the year, but I don't think they know what next year looks like yet.
This is what I know and have heard from recources on the inside. Again, If you know someone at EJA that will put their reputation on the line and go to some extreme measures to help you, I would start begging now. Sept 11 changed the market place overnight and they have more resumes than they have ever had before so the competition is tough.
Hope this helps! Hang in there, they will call you, it's just a matter of time now.
