    I have just seen the advertisement for vacancies in the UK and it says to send an email with the ref no. do you literally send them an email with that 6,8 (I dont remember) lettered code?

    that's all I did, I put it in the subject box and also the main email.
    did my test on Friday... not sure how it went as there was a maths one that I didnt have a clue on and couldnt find anything to help... Ah well, just keep fingers crossed I guess!! :o

    I just pop in now and then.... :)

    I only put the code in the body of the email but received the automated reply soon after.

    I sent my application off last Thursday so am hoping to hear either way this week. Although from reading this thread, response times seem to vary. I guess it depends on the number of applications they receive.

    Well, I didnt pass the test apparently.... which I'm kind of relieved about in a way as with baby no. 2 due soon it was going to be hard to do, even though we need the money... :o

    I find it a bit unfair that you get no feedback as to why you didnt pass - yes, I understand they get inundated but when you take a few hours out of your day to complete the test, application etc. it would be nice to know...

    I just pop in now and then.... :)

    I'm sorry to hear that :( Best of luck with the birth of your second baby, I'm sure he/she will keep you more than busy! Have you applied for Lionbridge? That might be a good source of work at home income for you.

    Found them, they are not recruiting here at the moment, plus we've not been in Aus five years yet BUT I will keep the bookmark and look them up again at a later date. Thanks for this :)

    Does anyone know if it's possible to work for AQA whilst out of the country? I'm planning on moving to Argentina in a few months and this would be a good way to supplement my travel funds.
  • I sent for my application form and test last week and didn't get a reply.

    Emailed them again yesterday to see if my email had been received and still nothing!
