I emailed the head of recruitment a day or two before I submitted my application, because I was confused. My understanding was that as soon as we got to the video interview part we can skip through all the questions and submit, and if you were invited to do a video interview. You will be invited to do an assessment centre. Anyways I emailed him about the submission and I got aired. I was considering emailing 10k black interns but if others are hearing back I should probs hold that thought😭

Wow ok, I didn't submit the application. I only done the questions. The vi unlocked. I didn't open the vi at all.
Hey guys just joining this conversation. I did the same thing @Jaycee_88. And now I’m realising maybe they didn’t get our application as we didn’t submit. 😭 @Zaoi201._ who did you email as the head of recruitment. Also don’t lose hope it’s possible that they’re still holding assessment centres. My friend who also completed the assessments didn’t get it. When she clicks on the link for the online assessment she now sees a message that stated “sorry this job isn’t for you” or something along those lines

Also just sucks in general that I may not be considered for this internship. I’ve been really struggling to secure one this year, and personally I think the email that was sent out wasn’t worded the best. Instructions were a bit unclear

I have read the original email we received and I cannot see anything about a submission. its just do the assessment and ignore the VI.

If I am honest the original instructions where not clear. cause it should have been doing the test, ignore the video, submit, or just do the test and ignore the video, no need to open it or submit.

Yea I 100% agree with you the instructions were terrible. Have you tried clicking on the assessment link again to see if your answers were received. @Evarimagg did you submit?
@Coolgyal19999 I did the test and later I got a mail asking me to proceed with the video interview which I also did.

It’s the same person that emailed us with all of the info & idk I seriously doubt I made it to assessment centre stage. April ends next week and I still haven’t heard anything.

I probably shouldn’t have done that based off the most recent reply😭
