UPDATE: IQ post that got so many comments

Let me clarify... I did NOT find this hard at all. I wasn't posting it because I thought it was hard, yes I know it was easy, I wasn't posting to cheat, I wasn't looking for answers etc. The point of my post was to prove the ridiculous hoops employers nowadays are making us jump through to even APPLY for a minimum wage job. It wasn't just an IQ test it was also a 40 question Personality profile test and then I had to look at 100 pairs of words and numbers to see if they were the the same or different to check my attention to detail. This was timed.

So now that's clarified here's an update:

It was for a WFH Customer Service/Call Centre type role with Sensèe. I did pass the test and got offered an interview, but I cancelled the interview in the end because of their overwhelming negative 1* reviews on Trustpilot, Indeed, Reed and Glassdoor.

So I read the terms and conditions of the actual job and dug deep to find out some facts...

They carry out credit checks and DBS checks that you have to pay for with no reimbursement. You're guaranteed so many hours per week but you have to book your own hours and it's first come first serve so say for example you wanted 9-5 and you went on to the booking system and somebody else had already booked it? Too bad, only other option is 6pm-2am and you would HAVE to accept. You have to video the room you'll be working from and if it's not up to scratch they make you buy new furniture for example you've got a comfy chair that you sit in every day? Too bad, you've gotta buy one of their approved ergonomically accepted chairs at your own expense. They also require 5 years worth of bank statements. 2 character references and 2 professional references. You have to download software to make sure your laptop is always connected to their servers and they have a webcam always on policy so they can constantly see what you're doing. You're allowed toilet breaks but they're timed down to the second.

Soooo for anyone who misunderstood my last post and chose to leave nasty, spiteful comments, this update is just to show the absolutely crazy shit that jobseekers have to put up with nowadays to even APPLY for a minimum wage job! This sub should be about lifting people up and giving genuine advice.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
