It means they want to see the round 3 pool before deciding whether to move you forward. About 100 people, according to Dee's blog, were FC'd in Round 1, including me. Keep hope alive, I ended up getting an interview invite last week.

This is all SO crazy. Honestly I haven't looked because I'm trying to finish a tough day at work without becoming totally useless mid-day but this is very disappointing - how could NO one get an interview? She said "some not all" were released last week. Where are our second wave invites?
