Online glitch?

Hi Folks. I applied to a BB summer internship in early fall for London... I basically failed the numerical test because I didn't know I couldn't go back to any questions..... Anyway, I emailed a contact there and let him know, etc. Like I expected, I got a communication through the portal that my application was unsuccessful, thanks for applying, blah blah . WHatever, I wrote it off........ I just logged back on to actually maybe apply for another program, and I saw that about 6 days after I got that rejection letter, they invited me to take a different kind of test....This was back in late October. Very strange, eh? SHould I call HR tomorrow? It says the application is still open and they are waiting for me to take the tesst...

Thanks

This is a tough one. I think we'll have to use a complex payoff diagram to figure this one out.

If HR fucked up and gave you an extra shot that you weren't supposed to, and you email them: - Oops we fucked up, jokes about the interview.

If HR didn't fuck up and you deserved the extra shot, and you email them: - No change in status.

I'll let you fill out the other two options in this logic tree.

 

duh. take the test!

Just do it and forget about it. Wait...

When a plumber from Hoboken tells you he has a good feeling about a reverse iron condor spread on the Japanese Yen, you really have no choice. If you don’t do it to him, somebody else surely will. -Eddie B.
