video auditions

#1 Post by emi » Sun Jun 05, 2016 3:24 pm

I don't see anyone commenting on video auditions. I sent mine in and havent heard a peep. I sent it in over 2 weeks ago. Anyone hear anything or how many sent in video auditions?

I haven't tracked video auditions, but if someone using that process is informed they've been placed in the Pool, I'll start a tracking thread as I did in 2009. --Bob

If you do a video audition, do you forego a written test?
I sent in a video for Pyramid and heard nada, but wondered how they would administer the test if I passed the video part.

Not that I've been through the video audition process; but since they have no way of giving you a written test, I would guess they get to you through skype or something to give you an oral test.

I believe video aud passers last time had to eventually pass a written test too. gsabc, any comment?

If not, that would sure go a long way to explaining some of the contestants this season...

I did the video audition last year, and an oral test of 30 questions was part of the Skype interview.
