Strange..

Hi
A while back I applied for Lionbridge and unfortunately didn't pass the exams so I thought that was that. However i got a email recently saying I could apply again so i did. This time instead of the usual test I got this surveymonkey test that had similar questions ie assess this page rate it bad good etc but it was a lot easier then the large exam.

They emailed me today to say i'd passed and now i was a freelance lionbridge consultant, i just find it strange as the test was so short compared to the other one. They've not asked for money or anything, and its from a lionbridge email has any one had similar experiences?

regards

  • Maybe its for a different role as I believe they have a few different ones.

    When I passed the regular long test the role name was different to the one you have mentioned. Not sure I am allowed to put it on here though.

    I guess once they send you all the log in information then it will be confirmed.

    it's probably a different one... i have been reading through another thread on here about LB... freelancer talked about time sheet. i will get paid per task, so definitely working differently

  • kathcake I am the same as you, applied earlier in the year, failed exam, got email, did survey and passed. As it's my second job i am just going to consider it a bit of excitement and something different to do in my spare time. Let's see what happens, good luck to us all!!
