Hi, soz if this is a noob question but I can't find an answer anywhere - please can someone tell me if there are no tasks available do you have to make any mention of this on the timesheet?

No - also you are not penalised if you don't do your minimum hours for the week if there are periods with no work available.

It has been rather quiet lately. Hopefully things will pick up again soon.

Hiya, I'm in the process of applying for one of these jobs but am just wondering - does anyone know if they contact your past/current employers for references? Thanks

Has anyone applied for any of the LB roles recently? If so, how long did it take for them to get back to you after you submitted the application form?

No, they don't.

No, they don't.

Thanks MallRat, didn't want my current employer to get a shock and think I was leaving them!


Has anyone else applied that currently has another job? How have you entered it into the work experience section? It won't let me not put in an end date!

Is anyone here doing the Web Content Judge role? Or has anyone attempted the qualification process for it?

Anyone working for LB can you tell me if you have had work over the past 2 or 3 weeks please. I have been logging in several times each day but have not seen any work. I'm starting to think it's just me, I've emailed LB twice but no reply.

Hi,

I have been working for Lionbridge since March and there were plenty of tasks to complete.

I was wondering if it was a scam since their communication isn't the best, but today I was finally notified that my billing time had been accepted and an invoice generated. However, at the same time I also received an e-mail saying my services are no longer required due to 'circumstances beyond their control'!!

There were still plenty of tasks on the project as far as I could see, but apparently my access will end in a couple of days. Has anyone else been suddenly dropped from Lionbridge? Does anyone know why? I guess it was too good to be true.

Kind Regards

Yes, similar happened to me last July. I was sent an email in the morning saying my services were no longer required. I didn't receive an explanation as to why this was.. and access was removed. It was a bit gutting at the time.

Has anyone here tried re-applying? Have you had any luck MallRat? I applied to LF early last week.. but didn't hear anything back. `
