Skype/TeamSpeak interview by Flebula September 15, 2014 at 9:09 AM UTC

After I submitted my staff application and I was replied with a "Review" tag, With my anxiety my first thought was "When will the interviews take place?". What I am really inquiring is, How are they going to let me know that an interview is going to take place? Are they going to reply on my application discussion? Or will they make a whole new post about when the interviews will take place?

If you could answer this question, many thanks to you :)

I think it happens when you get the approval of 3 senior staff members
I may be wrong so it is probably best to ask one of them yourself :)

I may be wrong but I remember a general thread being made for those who got accepted, that detailed the times that the interviews were going to take place?
Don't quote me on that though.

What I can tell you is that you will be contacted after you app is in review so look out for that and good luck mate!

Hey!
Congratulations on your application being reviewed!

I have not planned the exact date and time yet, however it is planned to be hosted a few weeks after the applications close. Applicants that are accepted for an interview will be added on Skype; and they will receive information regarding session times. There will also be a thread regarding the times, and who will be interviewed!

Thanks for the helpful replies guys! (Rhyming accidentally)

But the main thing I am asking is: How will we be contacted that we are having an interview?

It's normally split into 3 - 5 blocks, each block can last about two hours. You are able to pick which block you are in depending on what time zone you are in and what fits you. I believe you are put into a skype group and then when it's time the title will change to something like "Book times now! [LINK]." Don't worry, I don't think that people have been invited to that chat yet, there should be a thread telling you to contact a Director about the interviews. I hope this helped, and good luck with the interviews!

Skype.

Also, I forgot to mention....
You'll also receive a notification on your application; updating you whether or not you have made it to the next stage! :)

Interviews are done through Teamspeak primarily or Skype as an alternative.

Does this help?

EDIT: Just got ninja'd by the two mods ^
xD it'll be best to listen to them. Good luck dude!

So basicly, just wait for a thread regarding the interviews.

Flebula September 15, 2014 at 9:09 AM UTC

Yes! All these replies helped so much :D I couldn't have asked for a better reply. Exactly what I wanted :)

Ouch! I hope my parents aren't home when we do the interview then xD, they allow me to talk 2 hours from time to time but they get really mad xD, do you know if it is possible to listen and type if none of the dates/times are good for us to be able to talk but we can be there? cause my problem kind of is that I can be on A LOT but when it comes to talking my parents are really strict about it :$

Is the Skype/TeamSpeak 3 a voice call or message call?

Skype and TS3 are voice calls/message calls. But most likely interviews would be in Voice calls.
