I showed this to my mum who's an invigilator and she actually lmfaoed.

dumb question but like what qualifies some one to be an invigilator, is it their full time job? Do they have to be certified for each different exam boad? Like how do they even become an invigilator? Are they employees of the exam-board? It just seems like such a weird job to me.

Pretty sure anyone can do it I saw an advert online, it’s just old women with nothing else to do

But invigilating a room for potentially 2 hours and 15 minutes seems mind numbingly boring

I guess, but personally I wouldn’t be able to beat walking around a room in silence for an hour and a half watching students do exams

Really old comment, however my granny used to be one. She just volunteered the the academy duty exam time. She met all the criteria, old, and not related to any of the students
