Why would you give the questions away to your competitors? Now there's an extra advantage for those who are getting interviews later.

Did the phone interview today, but didn't think I answered the questions the best that I could.
Anyone have any ideas when they'll contact you with a job offer? Or to let you know that you didn't make the cut?
thanks

thanks | Latest beginning of May if you don't get a call back, that means you didn't make it. He said candidates can call in and ask why they didn't get chosen.

Has anyone got a job offer or are they still only conducting interviews? Anyone still writing the test? I wrote the test 2 months ago and have still not heard back....does this mean it's probably over for me?

Just got the call, exam is on tuesday, kinda don't want to go and rather study for finals but she said exam is only 20 mins. Calling people up to survey isn't really my thing, should I ask for a supervised position rather than non supervised?

Just because you're a supervisor doesn't mean you wont be supervised

I thought supervised position meant that there would be someone supervising you and non supervised meant there isn't. I'm not looking to BE a supervisor lol

supervisory positions need you to be available fulltime 8-5 during the day, I applied for that and passed the test on that but when I was talking to the guy giving the test thats when I found out the availability needed

you cant go around trying to hide petty information like this, you have to expect everyone to know this shit like it's free candy, your advantage shouldnt be this info, if it is, lol you don't have much leverage over your "competitors".

So you mean that everyone who is chosen for an interview will get one by wednesday? does that mean that no more interviews if we still didn't get one?

friend took the supervisor interview, she said they make you point at a map of the lower mainland and explain about different areas, ethnic areas, safety concerns. also, point out all the construction zones in the area. when you point out a construction zone, state that its important to know because enumerators should take caution around construction zones as it is dangerous, also its handy to consider these zones when planning out routes.
another thing she told me was you'll be a putting a lot of boxes with files in your house. your house will be used as a mini-warehouse for a shit ton of survey forms. but you'll get compensated $2/day for that reason

^no
doesnt matter if it is a test or interview.
When you are in a situation for the purpose of getting a job, you MUST dress business like.
NEVER EVER go in casual.
It is always better to be overdress then underessed.
Friendly tip from a person who is part of recruting
