Anyone else taking Lionbridge Exam next week?

I also sent my application off for this last night but am now getting worried reading these comments. I took the waiver to mean that the points listed were illegal and were not part of what we would be reviewing. That's correct, isn't it?

I took it to mean that superstar

Well that's it. It's all over for me. My time is done.

I'd like to say Thank You.

Thank you to Sammyantha for the OP. Thank you to all those who have contributed. Thank you to Fintan for those invitations to his little get-togethers, sorry I could never attend.

And finally a big Thank You to the lovely Martina for those much-awaited monthly emails, and yes I do promise to do better next time.

Thank you. Thank you all. It's been emotional.

What happened Zebra? Did you reach the end of the contract?

Yes Pip, I did.

It's a great little earner. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to anyone considering applying.

I think the contract length is probably something to do with employment law or taxation.

The only question now is - What next?

I've been really bummed since finding out that we can only work for the for a year, as I'm really enjoying the work. I've still got about 6 months left on my contract.

What was the email like saying your contract had come to an end? Did it leave the door open for future opportunities?

I wonder if they allow people to apply for other work-at-home positions, someone mentioned a social-media type position.

At least you still have 2 more paychecks to come, or do they pay out the remaining all at once?

Please post if you find something similar, as you say it is a great little earner. Perhaps you could get something with LeapForce or Butler Hill? I've read online that they offer similar positions.

The email just said I wasn't being retained and gave a date and time to finish all my tasks. Access to the tasks was then blocked although you can still get to the timesheets etc.

I've also received my last pay, the last two months are paid as one.

I'm going to keep on looking on the website occasionally to see if anything else comes up.

I don't think Leapforce recruit in the UK but Butler Hill are advertising so I may apply there after the summer.
