    Just did my first 30 questions - took about 4 hours in total - but avergae question time came down from 10 mins to 7 mins so im getting there. Hopefully done ok and pass the first review fine.
  • Hi, I had a message this morning saying that i have been unsuccessful. Could anyone who didnt pass the first time around let me know if they were able to reapply straight away? Can i just adjust my answers and just re-submit my application? Thanks

    Had my first review back - got 96% SPG and 100% content - well chuffed. Now to earn some dough so i can get paid in Nov!! Anyone need any help then Pm me - more than happy to give hints/tips etc
  • have finally got my 2nd test, am going to try and do it tonight.

    Hsve racked my brains to think why I failed last time, I thought I did well. I think my answers were a bit 'dry', possibly I was trying to hard to sound clever!

    Will certainly give it my best shot, have to pay my uni fees and could really do with an extra income.

  • I just got an email saying that i passed! Now i've just got to do my 30 questions.

    To anyone else who has already got in, i need your help with something. It says in the email that i need to fill in some details on a contract. It then goes on to say that i should probably send it back via email because of the recent postal strikes but it also says that my signature has to be hand written. How can i hand write a signature when i'm doing it on a computer and emailing it back?

    I also noticed in the FAQ document they sent me that it says that they will require me to answer a question over the phone to them and they'll go through the process over the phone. Do they actually do this or is it just over instant messaging?
  • chloebelle - you said that you'd just received your second test - how long ago did you take your first one? did you reapply straight away after not passing your first?

    Hi

    I printed my contract off and then signed it by hand. I then scanned it in and sent it back. My training was done through instant messaging and I think most peoples were, I haven't spoken to anyone in person so to speak!

    Good luck!

    I applied 3 times, first time i failed i applied again straight away and second time too but when i got my 3rd test it looked even harder than the others so decided not to do it. But anyway to answer your question you can apply straight away!

    Hi people!

    How long did you have to wait after the initial auto-response application email before you were contacted? Thank you.
    I know nothing
