AQA recruiting

chloebelle

I sent my application form back on thursday and have still heard nothing. I tried really hard, I'm guessing its not good news.

May send a chaser email but don't want to wind them up in case they just decline me because I'm pressurising them!

Just an update from me. All is going OK. I passed my first review (woohoo got 100% on SPG which I was chuffed with). Just awaiting a talk through with SR then I can get on I think. And I've made £9.00 from 30 questions and it only took me about an hour in total so I think it'll be a nice way to earn a bit extra. I've had one or two odd/weird/tricky questions but overall I've found it fun.

Red1708 - that all sounds a bit weird. I got an email not a text to say I was in. I didn't get an account number, but I had to download a program and that kind of thing. But all done via email and then Yahoo IM. HTH

Hi

Well I had an email from SR saying that my review is on KES but due to access difficulties I can only get on at the weekend so I guess I will have to wait... now that is nerve wracking!!

Does anyone know how long they usually take to send out application packs? I sent mine on Friday and got an auto-responder saying thankyou for your interest, we'll be in touch shortly.

Although thinking about it perhaps they don't review applications on weekends? So it's only really 2 days not 4 ... hmm ... could do with the extra cash, must pay for Xmas! :rolleyes:

I got through my first review ok but TBH I think 30p per question is fairly low, especially when some of the answers cantake some time researching. Glad I tried it but I'm not sure I will be doing much of it, think my DH might complain about the amount of time I will spend on the computer.

Well got the results of my 2nd test, failed again

Not sure if will try again, i thought my answers were much better this time so you must have to be fantastic to pass!

Jenna i got my first failure email Saturday, 2nd test Sunday and 2nd failure email today so might be worth chasing?

Good Luck chipbeck and lilmissmup.

I have my induction scheduled for tommorrow evening, so hope to get up and running on my first 30 on Tuesday.

Good Luck to you both and keep us posted

Completely unrelated, but I've got a handbag with your avitar image on it! That's the first time I've ever seen it anywhere else. Must have used it once, so it's off to carbootsale....poor wee pretty thing.

Back on topic.....Good luck everyone who's applying!

Sorry to hear that Rain (and the others who were declined). If it helps any - I tried REALLY hard on my first lot and got declined (I KNOW my spelling and grammar is quite good - I'm a bit of a freaky picky person with it and as my other post states I got 100% on it in my first review). The 2nd time although I took it seriously as I wanted the job, I was much more 'myself' in the answers and used some humour.
What they don't really tell you in detail until you've got the job is they want you to be 'bold' and also 'certain' so even if you're NOT 100% sure of the answer, don't write that - or if there might be other possible answers don't say it - say your answer as though it IS a certainty (although don't make things up!). For those questions that you couldn't do research for (e.g. will Sarah ever go out with me?) give a quite fun answer. I got a question about how would win in a fight between Prince Harry and Prince William (which I think someone else mentioned) and I put something like 'There wouldn't be a fight between them because they are of the English gentry and fighting is considered crass'. I considered spending ages giving a factual reply based on their heights and weights but in the end decided whoever asked it wanted a fun reply!

Anyway - I hope that helps a little Keep trying
