    You can access the thread I started called "Diary of a new Swift Driver". I just started on Nov. 30 (applied on Nov. 1), so you maybe can glean something from my experience so far.

    Hey tdcanterbury67 I will be at the same orientation in Columbus on the 27th. Have you received any sort of info on where to stay or documentation we need to bring? I'm hoping my recruiter gets me all the info I need tomorrow, but right now I have no info other than I am scheduled for class.
