    Yes but that isn't an incentive, its a rule. No one is going to try solving a hard question once they have done their required monthly percentage.

    So far my hard rate for this month is 82% and I am surprised that a lot of the questions in the hard queue are not difficult to solve or research.

    I quite like the hard queue, as you get to pick an answer that interests you. The easy questions are hit and miss... ie. if you get a tricky question, you either have to skip it, or tie up a lot of time researching it!

    I recently applied for this, and was successful :T Did the test on Monday, got a response saying I'd been accepted on Thursday, emailed back my signed contract on Friday, and got my 'welcome' email the same day. Now I'm just waiting to hear from my allocated Senior Researcher about my induction.

    Do you mind if I ask was it Romany you had to send your text to or somebody else?

    Romany took a long time with me too, I'd love to know how she organises her emails!
    I've a feeling it'll take a while for her to reply to me again now I'd emailed back my contract :(
  • How long do they take to send you the application pack? l sent an email on Thursday but l haven't received it yet only an automated response to say l will receive a test shortly.

    lisalou it seems to vary from between a day or two to about a week. They are very busy at the moment so don't lose hope!
  • Thanks Tial l was worried sick and kept checking my email every 30 minutes.

    No worries, the application people are a bit rubbish if truth be told. It took me 2 weeks to get a reply!
