    Same here essjaytee but I'm not sure I can fit in the hours they want a week every week with my other commitments. I'm working for LB as well and they've had quite a lot of work available over the last couple of weeks but I'm sure that won't last! I'd be interested in finding out how you get on..and I'll have to make my decision about ABH soon.....15 hours a week I could ,manage every week but 20/22 will be just too much!

    Hi. Just noticed tonight in my spam folder I had an email from a few days ago with a link to do a pre-screening test for WSE position. Passed that now so next step is to do the qualification exam which they reckon "Qualification will require a commitment of approximately 30 hours" :eek:

    Can't wait... lol :rotfl:

    On plus side already done it once for LB so hopefully not too dis-similar and also the 4 hrs per day seems to be within a 12 hour window M-F so I'm feeling a bit better about that aspect of the work. So just waiting to hear.... again!

    Thanks for this post as have just found the same email in my spam folder. Can't believe it's been sitting in there for 5 days unnoticed. :mad:

    I did decide to go for it but I'm still waiting to hear from them. Fingers crossed!

    just keep an eye on your spam folder.. lol.

    Had an email from them this morning asking if I'm still interested in WSE position but then it also mentions they have projects for both flexible working hours and also working in business hrs 7am - 7pm and to let them know which I would prefer so they can send me the project details.

    Good news for me as the only issue I had with ABH was trying to work for 4 hrs for them a day whilst also having another day job so hopefully the flexible hrs project will work out ok. We shall see...

    Is anyone else supposed to be starting the testing period today, but feeling like they really can't be bothered with it all? :(

    Yesssssss!!

    Just ploughing through all their emails and attachments is exhausting. Absolutely dreading starting the actual "schedule of lesson modules" before we even get to take the tests!!

    Gonna sit down tonight and try and plough through some of them and just keep thinking of the money if I pass :rotfl:

    Haha, glad that it's not just me.

    The thing is, I REALLY need to pass this as it's now exactly 3 months since I was let go by Lionbridge. I then tried and failed to get in at Leapforce, so this is now my last option really.

    Have just finished reading the guidelines, and am aiming to force myself to get started on the next part some time within the next few hours... Just need to finish watching Jeremy Kyle first. And Real Housewives of Atlanta. And then Millionaire Matchmaker... :D

    Thats a bit worrying :eek:. Is anyone able to confirm they have had payments from them over the last few months? Don't want to be doing all this work for nothing!!!
