I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Thoughty2 (London, England) in Oct 2021
Interview
After my initial application process I was asked to write a 500 word script sample on a topic that was given to me and was shortlisted to the next stage. This stage involved writing a second 500 word script sample on a pre-approved topic I’d chosen myself, this time I was to be paid £20 for the sample. I was told they would be in touch once my sample had been read but no-one ever reached out to me. No one responded when I asked for an update 2 months after I sent that second sample, and I was never paid the £20.
