FAQs:
Q. How long is the demo going to be?
Ans. There will be a 1 time practice with the Recruiter of your intro and demo, after which is the
actual recording of your intro and demo. The recording will be a continuous file so no need to
pause and wait for instructions after your self-introduction and just go straight to the demo class.
The file won’t be edited anymore and will be submitted raw to the approvers so please make sure
to avoid unnecessary noise in the background and be at your usual best. The demo recording
usually lasts between 8-10 minutes if without interruption.

Q. How soon can I expect feedback on my demo approval?

Ans. As there will be several assessors of your demo quality, you can expect feedback 24-48hrs
after the demo recording.

Q. How will I receive the feedback if I passed or failed the demo?

Ans. We encourage you to keep all of your communication lines open within the next 24-48hrs
after your demo recording. We will try to reach you via mobile phone, email, or Skype.

Q. What if I failed the demo, when can I re-apply?

Ans. Should you fail the demo, you will be provided feedback on areas to improve on and we
highly suggest that you work on these areas. Once you are confident enough that the said factors
have been improved/addressed, you may re-apply.
