Deluxe Spain reached out to me about a transcription job and joining their transcription pool. After a lot of back and forth, they wanted me to do a 2 hour unpaid test. It felt a bit much, but I did it anyway. That was on a Friday. They assured me I wouldn't need to practice or do research, but also weren't able to answer any questions I had about the test instructions. Nevertheless, I figured it out and submitted it. But no one confirmed they received my test. Two days later, on a weekend, another person stepped in and let me know they received it and I'd have the results in a few days.
Then I heard nothing. I emailed twice and only got a reply this week. I asked if I'd have a definite result before the month is through, and they haven't replied.
Unlike most agencies, they had no NDA they wanted me to sign. Tomorrow it'll have been two weeks since the test.
They said they're only able to pay in USD and seem to favour PayPal and Payoneer over bank transfer. They mentioned nothing about what program they use or much details about the job. But they said one would go through training if accepted. I don't know if that would be paid or not.
Has anyone else been approached by them and do you think they're legit? ▲ Collapse
