Considering COVID, and how backed up embassies are at the moment, it is highly unlikely you'll get an interview anytime soon. I hope you're not from Mexico, because the embassy there is the worst. I've been waiting for an interview appointment for the embassy in Mexico since Nov 2019. Back then they were 12 months behind but now they're like 18 months behind, and every day they stay closed they get further behind.

The way it works is, the embassy lets the NVC know when it has time slots available. From there, the NVC picks people from the list, assigns them a time slot, and sends their documents to the embassy.

Right before the CDJ embassy closed, they were working on cases completed at the NVC from April/May 2019. So... Yeah, wait time is long.
