We got Pack 3 Feb 8. Sent it out Feb 22

JUST GOT THE CALL TODAY! They had a cancellation for tomorrow and offered the SO a spot at 1:30.

I researched and most people stated it would take 5 business days, their email stated 7 business days, but 21 calendar days later, we got it for the next day.

Seems like it would have been the same as receiving the interview date end of Feb, but the wait was killer!
