    Congrats to all that have passed!!

    Thanks to this thread I applied way back on the 10th Feb, and thought I'd been missed as I didn't hear a peep for a good 2 wks... I'm now awaiting my exam bits and pieces by wed 9th - yay!

    I'm a bit apprehensive about the exam reading through here as most are saying its heavy going... oh well I'm certainly going to give it my best shot!

    Anyone else doing the exam next week?

    Hi Guys & Girls

    Good Luck to all taking an exam and congrats to those who have passed. :j

    Meh! Got a 2 star rating here too, I honestly thought I was doing well! Mind you have had a nosy round some other forums and seems others have too :p
    Im crapping myself everytime I press submit now lol

    2 stars for me too. I was half expecting it for the 1st month anyway but it is still not a great motivator! Oh well, at least it looks like we are all in the same boat - unless all you 5 star people are keeping quiet and not wanting to upset the rest of us!

    THANK YOU TO ALL WHO TAKE TIME TO POST COMPETITIONS :beer:
  • Hi everyone, did my first two hours yesterday, I really enjoy the work, but it's quite a big undertaking, what with all the guidelines and new tasks that aren't addressed in the exam. Still, onwards and upwards.

    Still having trouble loading my timesheet - apparently it's a browser problem - has anyone else struggled with this - if so, what was the solution.

    Happy rating!

    (I'll let you know what mark I get in my monthly review, but to be honest, I think there is a fairly steep learning curve for this job)

    Cheers,

    Paul

    I'm interested in this but I've had a look round their website and can't see any details of the rate of pay. Does anyone know what it is please?

    Due to a NDA that we have all signed we cant tell you that info. Its worth it though ;)
    I cant quite remember but I think we were given that info once we had done the initial application but before we had done the exam. Im sure someone who's brain isnt as mashed as mine will correct me if Im wrong. :)

    I got the dreaded 2 stars too :eek: and was in one almighty panic. HOWEVER, if you look at the date it's hardly surprising. The star rating is dated 11 Feb and I'd only done a few days rating.
    They have provided good quality feedback in my portal so at least I can see where I might have gone wrong.

    You're brain isn't mashed :j

    If your application is accepted, they will send you through all the terms and conditions, together with NDA, which you complete PRIOR to sitting the exam. The rate of pay is included with that information.
