    Ooh, congratulations! Did you miscalculate, or do you think they let you off?! Good luck for the final part, anyway. :D
    I don't think I miscalculated since I did it a few times, so I guess they either let me off for that one that didn't display properly, or they rounded my percentage up :p

    Thanks! I'm not really looking forward to the tests now TBH, but at least they're shorter so it'll be over quicker.

    I have done a bit for Appen in the past, but only stuff they contact me about. Which seems to just be the voice recording stuff these days. I never applied for transcription work - I applied for WSE and failed the tests, but they occasionally offer me short transcription jobs. How did you get the 7-8 weeks work?

    I might try both transcription and WSE for iSoft Stone then...

    I got the transcription work just by completing the tests online. I did wait ages before getting work though, I guess it is popular. Be interesting to see what is on offer with iSS. Good luck with your applications :)

    Can I ask which tests those are? I've only ever done the spelling tests. Are there others?

    Yes, here's hoping iSS have some good work available.

    Yes it was the spelling tests. I just checked my emails. I registered at the end of 2012 and it was autumn 2013 before I got work that lasted any longer than a day. Hth Rachel.

    I registered a couple of years ago too. Oh well! Perhaps my scores aren't high enough or something.

    Oh, I don't understand in that case. That's really strange. You could always do the test again if you don't think you scored highly enough. They have probably changed the test since you did it. Maybe we'll get something with iSS :):):)

    No...

    I was really hoping to get everything formalised asap so we could get started.

    Have been contacted about the transcription work, anyone else? :) Not sure what to make of the pay etc but I'm going to give it a go.
