but no follow up with the “test” details?
Nope. Figured it was one at Moscow
Hi guys,
I decided to sign up to this board, only for this topic, as it was the only one I could find by google concerning the application process for volunteers.
After reading here that the initial invite for the english test would take about 3 days, i was a little bit downstruck because it was already 9 days… however on the 10th day i finally received an invite for the test. Its a pity you dont get the results of the english test, however it is not that hard. I think it corresponds to a high school level of english.
Anyway, i wanted to ask you guys how long did it take after the english test for them to contact you again?
I also got the Course on my calendar, however if you read carefully, it says it concerns the course: EF Test_OCOG ... which corresponds to English First Test OCOG… so i guess this is only the english test. Have you guys “attended” to this course before receiving the russian mail??
Thanks, and i will keep checking this board and updating you regarding my status…
Cheers
Hi Lukie!
Welcome!
We both did the English Test and got the weird Russian email around the same time (off to check timing) we are both waiting on this next “test”
TJ thinks it will happen in Moscow I am not too sure - I think and email will come soon.
To be honest there is no consistency to the timing.
Hang in there!
Hey mate,
My emails are as follows. And then the last email in Russian was sent on the 17th July. That’s where we are confused.
And in the actual log-on part, it says this:
Local date
07-Feb-2014
Local Time
10:00 - 10:10 (UTC+04)
Reference Time
07-Feb-2014 10:00-10:10
Title
Interview (Available)
Appointment type
Interview (Available)
And when you hover over that, it says I should meet them in Moscow on the 7th Feb 2014 lol.
Yeah but that (the moscow ‘meeting’) has been there from what felt like the very beginning for me (def before i did the English test!)
I should file all my emails in one spot…
