Peace Corps Timeline Update…Home Stretch?

We received an email yesterday from our Placement Specialist who would like to set up a time for a placement phone call. We are THRILLED and have been waiting for someone to contact us since we were medically cleared and then asked to send in updated resumes earlier this week.

We will be speaking with the Placement Specialist early next week – I don’t think we’re going to be able to sleep a wink until then. {See countdown until the call to the right!}

To give you an idea of how long our journey has been so far, read below for our updated timeline. We hope we’re in the home stretch and just one more update away from knowing where we will be placed. Keep your fingers and toes crossed for us!
