    Cassiopeia - I've heard that Lionbridge won't take you back once you've worked for, or even applied to, Leapforce. Do they know you've worked for them yet? Please let me know how you get on, good luck! Did you work for Leapforce just after Lionbridge? And was it on your cv then?

    I emailes LB and asked if I could ever work for them again once my contract was up, and they said they unfortunately are not able to re-recruit people - however, if this should change in the futurem they'll let me know.

    Also, did you apply for Lionbtridge again at all after you finished with them, or did they randomly just email you?
  • Hi Dorual
    I worked for Lionbridge and then finished with them in April 2012. This year I started working for Leapforce, then out of the blue I got the email from Lionbridge inviting me to reapply. Like you I did email LB about a year ago and asked if I could reapply but I got the same reply as you.
    Having said that, I can't get anywhere with them as their instructions to reapply don't work for me and they are not answering emails so maybe they do know somehow about Leapforce.. :(
  • I am just waiting to hear back from the second part of the exam. Found this thread so wanted to say hi!!
    I am a bit of a newbie to this whole concept so no clue how well I have done

    *crosses fingers*
  • Whoop I'm in!! :D

    Does anyone remember how long it is from confirmation that you've been successful in the exam to actually starting working and earning? I've had an email to set up my user name and I've entered all my bank details but that's all so far. Unsure as to what happens next.
  • Does anyone know if working for Appen Butler Hill (crowdsourcing only) will be a conflict if I apply to Lionbridge?

    If you can log in and you have tasks then you can start, as far as I remember.
  • Once you've had the emails with your details you can log in and get started! Well done. :)

    I used to work for LB back in 2011, recently worked for LF but then they got rid of me randomly just at the same time I get asked to come back from LB. So just waiting for my exam to come through to prove I can still do the job! :)
  • Anyone who has done the Part III exam recently, how long after did you hear your results? The info I got said within 24 hours of exam deadline which has now passed and I've not heard anything?
