    Thank you :)

    Pretty straight forward for a 16 year old?

    And £100 a week is less than £6k a year which means I wouldn't pay tax, but in the holidays, christmas etc I will be working 20 hours a week so I need to sort this out.

    Still not had a reply, I know it takes weeks, but a member on this thread got a reply the same day! :(

    Hi, What questions do you have? I am sure someone on here can help. They can't help you with tax issues as that will be your responsibility. You will have to contact HMRC for that.

    Hi thanks for offering to help :)

    Yeah I'll contact HMRC.

    I just want this job now and I'm worried this test will be too hard because I really need the money! I want to save up for driving lessons and a holiday!

    Seriously people, is the pre screen test really hard? And what is the 'exam'?

    Its probably a good indication of whether you can do the job, with some general knowledge questions to see whether you know much in general and some technical expertise.
    I didn't think the online exam was particularly hard at all.

    Ah, ok, it sounds as though they are a bit behind their 3-5 day target then. Will keep my fingers crossed for you, I think I am about a week behind you now.

    I heard back today, and have, I assume, passed the spreadsheet test as they said I am still in the running. I have to sign the NDA and also complete an entrance exam next week before I definitely get the job though. Hope you got an email today too, wileycat.

    Yeah I got a e-mail late this afternoon. Sounds like the same one.
    Got another exam next week!

    They must have been marking the spreadsheets in batches then, I reckon.

    I've emailed to ask about the entrance exam, as I'm wondering whether it is the same thing as the 3 hour over the phone training, they had mentioned previously. If it is, I need to arrange childcare for my one year old as my partner will be at work. I'm hoping it is just another online test though as that would make things easier.
