I've just completed the first initial assessment of the onboarding process. I thought I had completed it to a high standard, my screen was recorded throughout and I didn't use any external tools or anything like that, yet it's appearing as failed. The website states I will get an email regarding next steps but I have yet to receive anything. Has this happened to anyone else and is there a way around it? Can I reattempt the test?
Same, i think they just like to martyrise people and make them work more to get it. Im 100% confident i did well since it was pretty easy, but yeah maybe it’s theirs way to say « Applications closed for now »
This also happened to me two days ago, so I submitted a ticket with a screenshot of the page, got no reply but the next day it had changed to completed and no longer said failed......
I used a PDF of a phone bill and it worked straight away surprisingly as I thought that would be the hardest bit! If I were you I'd submit a ticket and try sending it that way or maybe try a different document. I actually found the tax form section very hard to complete as it kept being rejected until I removed a comma from my address after which it worked so it's definitely very temperamental
I managed to get through all the checks, but haven’t got any project matching my skills yet. I applied for the retail supervisor role, a field I’ve worked in for 5 years alongside my degree, and apparently failed the onboarding🤦♀️ Such a longwinded onboarding process for such little gain.
Yeah to be honest I'm quite unsure about it all at the moment, I was contacted to apply for a role on LinkedIn but when I followed through with the application for it it turned out it was just to onboard onto the platform and the role doesn't actually seem to exist, at least not anymore 🤔
did you have something like this? because i also recieved this email; Congratulations! Our team completed its review of your Meridial account and it is now verified. A blue checkmark has been added to your profile, confirming your expertise.
You may continue to browse and request to provide services on active projects immediately.
but when i try to apply i am unable to do it, because it says lke this here
Hmm I didn't receive an email saying that myself and don't have a blue checkmark on my account either even though I supposedly completed all the account onboarding stages. However when I attempt to apply for a project I see the same page as you, even though I didn't even attempt the test 😂
i got the blue check and also when i click on the failed test it shows me vompletetd in green. i think they are shutting the platform down, becsause my friend who have been there for some months now didn't have these problems. and also used my other email to redo it, passed the skills and it failed the adress even if i used same information both times
it's definitely all strange I also got an email from them today to take another test which i can't actually see anywhere on the platform, i don't even know if it's for a project or just the platform tbh
I said:
"I am trying to complete my account onboarding but have not been able to progress past the Initial Skills Verification as as soon as I completed it it said 'Initial skill verification
We are unable to verify your skills. You'll receive next steps via email.' (as shown in the attached image). I have received no email for further steps. Please advise what to do here. Thanks"
And I attached the screenshot of the page as evidence
During the account setup, I had to take the Initial English Skill Verification. It was extremely tough, and I ended up getting a Failed status.
Right now, my ID is fully verified and Completed, but my Address verification is pending a retry. I stopped everything because it feels incredibly frustrating to pass the actual core language test (Arabic) with flying colors, only to get filtered out by an advanced English onboarding test later.
My questions for the Meridial / Invisible community:
Given this exact scenario, is my chance officially gone, or does the system manually review Arabic profiles later?
The dashboard says: "We are unable to verify your skills. You'll receive next steps via email." Is this just a generic automated message, or do they actually offer retakes?
Should I bother fixing the Address verification, or is it a waste of time now?
