Thank you again for applying to the Cornell Institute for Public Affairs. At this time your application is almost complete. We are currently waiting to receive feedback from Zinch (www.zinch.com), regarding your phone interview. Zinch is reaching out to several hundred applicants, randomly, and will keep trying until you have been reached. If there is any issue with contacting you Zinch will inform our department. Please keep in mind that we are a separate entity from Zinch, and we are unable to assist you with any issues regarding this portion of the application process (missed calls, or scheduling of interviews, for example). We will, however, reach out to you once we have confirmation from Zinch that the phone interview has been completed.
We greatly appreciate your patience during this busy time as we have several hundred applications to update. In addition, please recall that we will not begin to review completed applications until February. If you should have further questions please let me know and I will do my best to help. Again, we thank you for your patience.
