  • Groovychick - i am in the same boat as you. have done the tech assessment over 50 times to date and still no luck. I went on the workbooth help pages (under faq) and it tells you a few simple steps to see if your ethernet is one of the non accepted ones. Apparently mine is (mine is a realtek one?) and they don't accept those. oh the joy of jobseeking lol!!
    mine is ADMtek AN983 10/100Mpbs PCI adapter ..it is not mentioned in the list... i dont want to use my daughters pc as that is no where near upto spec.. i will speak to them today when i have my interview and see if i can send them the system information that i received from typing winmsd into run

  • Hi guys,i uploaded my cv with teletech yesterday and completed the online assessment.I got a call earlier saying that they would send me 2 online assessments,skills and tech,so i followed the steps and nothing happened for maybe 2 hours or so and finally got to the stage where it says my pc is compatible and to enter my mailing address so they can send me the software.My problem is it also said i should receive an email saying pass or fail,but they have not sent me one.Have i done something wrong here?
    many thanks

    I know this has nothing to do with this but I just had to post this thread
    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=741653&page=1

    It's about bad calls from debt collections, banks etc and winding them up.
    I was in tears - it's hilarous!

    Depends on how busy the recruitment side is at the moment, could hear back pretty quickly or it could be a week, either way they are just training a new block at the moment so you should be ok as long as you hear within the next week as it should still give you time to get all the paperwork etc done.

    Oh, so they do weekend training? I work a full-time job and wanted some extra cash, so was worried that I would not be allowed the time off work during the week mornings to do the training.

    Also, I got my new router this morning and have installed it and everyhting, but I just dont have a clue how I'm supposed to know if it has been set up and is working correctly. Anybody any guesses please?

    Here is the make/model: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/48546

    as recommended by Oliver :-) and I'm on Virgin broadband on a Dell PC. Many thanks.

    Can you browse the internet with it connected? If so it is ready to go. If not then you may have to do the connection a certain way for the modem to accept the router as its new connection point. (Normally powering the modem and pc off, connect router WAN port to modem, LAN port to PC, power up modem, wait for lights to lock/ settle, power up router, wait for lights to lock/ settle and then power up the PC.)
