Someone from the last batch mentioned when they started that training would resume at the beginning of the summer. Now weather that is true or not I don't know but obviously hope that it is. And guess what.... today is the first day of summer.
KorDenSer, If you have been waiting over a year, im sure that HR will just call you and just interview you over the phone again if they need to. I hardly think they would say oh this person is in the pool a year, we don't want them anymore. That would be unfair!
