I applied to Leapforce months ago and will admit I didn't put in a good application;it was rushed and pretty naff. Needless to say I never heard back. I've since applied to Appen and Lionbridge with fairly decent applications. My question is...what's the average time you lovely people have waited from submitting applications to being informed they've been accepted/asked to do exams?

Hi Lizzie,

Did you hear anything from Leapforce?

I applied last year and have only just heard something back now!

Hey @Misskyoung23 funny you should ask. I got an email yesterday offering me a contract, pending exams etc. I wonder if they've just not had anything on offer? I'm quite excited!!

How you getting on with the test @Lizziew24 ?
I've just this afternoon received the material for the test. It needs to be done for Monday. To be honest, I opened the email and closed it straightaway as it looked a bit daunting! I'll have a proper look tonight. How about you?

Hey, I managed to pass, though it was pretty intense work! Pretty hefty reading material, I'm still not sure I know what I'm doing!
How'd you do? K

I asked for longer to complete as they sent the training stuff when I was on holiday, so I have Monday earmarked to do it all. Fingers crossed!! Well done for passing!! Bring it on!!!

@Knopfler @Misskyoung23 have you both done the LB training part then? If so, can you tell me roughly what happens once you have read the guidance and you then click on part two....? I assume it's just putting that training into practice with some examples? But is it assessed? As in this part needs passing to actually do the exam??

Hi, @Lizziew24 - sorry, I am unable to help as I have not even applied for Leapforce yet - waiting until I have some definite time to devote to it, though I really doubt I will get in anyway - struggling with the Crowdsourcing one I have just got.

@Leeceford has just got in, so will have the freshest memory and is on here regularly. You could also try asking @Jon, @SarahLu too, though with the NDA people have to be careful what is said I suppose.

Good luck :)
