I’m pretty sure someone has posted about this elsewhere, but you can circumvent the interview wait time by taking an international trip and coming back through airports that offer interviews to arriving passengers.
My conditional was really fast.
My husband and I went to Portugal and came back to Boston.
As we were waiting to process back in through customs, I saw a line with 10 or so people off to the side and heard folks talking about the GE interviews.
I asked and they said just to ask to get in that line.
I had my interview done in under a half hour.
There are multiple airports where you can have an immediate, unscheduled interview when you are arriving back in the States.
Don’t forget to have your conditional approval available on your phone – took me a hot minute to pull that up.
This is USCBP’s website describing this – it’s an actual thing:
