      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Rev (Chicago, IL) in Jul 2015

      Interview

      They started with simple grammar questions, then asked me to describe my hometown. Then they give you a short video to transcribe. Before you go on to transcribe, they warn you that once you hit "continue" you will have a deadline to finish it by, so only go on to the videos when you have time to spare. After I submitted it, I got an email saying I had potential, and that they had two more videos for me to transcribe. They also had a "perfect" example of how the first video should have been done so I could learn from that. After I submitted the second video, they automatically showed me a perfect example of how that video should have been done. I did most of it right, besides for moving the captioning up when there is text on bottom of the screen that it would block. But they say don't worry about being perfect, as it takes time to learn it all. Anyway I made sure not to make that same mistake on the third video. I captioned the third video, submitted it, and then my application was done. I received an email that said, "We appreciate your interest, however at this time we will not be moving forward with the application process. We have rigorous minimum standards and unfortunately your application did not meet those. Please do not contact Rev regarding this decision, as we are unable to further elaborate on our reasons." I know that I did a near perfect job, so I don't know why my application got denied. I do wish they would make the application process a lot quicker of they are going to turn down so many people. I wasted so much time for that.
