One thing to note: two emails from them and they have yet to refer to me by my real name. Very Happy

They also cleared up the multiple agent pages and also the reason why we don't show up on both groups we are in:

Quote:
Hey Nicko,

You were part of the initial batch of recuits manually entered into the system before it switched to a dynamic, fully online format. This system now requires recruits to select a primary and a secondary position, though only your primary is shown on the website. I have changed your name in the system to "Nicko", last name "D" and swapped you to being a primary member of the "Development" team and a secondary member of the "Research" team.

I hope this clears things up, but let me know if there is anything else I can do as far as updating your account!

Thanks,

Just sent off an application, hopefully I'm not too late for the current 'intake' of agents.

By the way, long time non-member lurker. Glad to be aboard Smile

It seems as if the requirement to gain the third rank is to make a good impresion in you job application.
For my application, I have put quite some effort into writing it (1549 chars, says notepad) and have been promoted straight to rank 3 upon acceptance into the company.
As they are looking for a specific type of employee for each division I think you should describe yourself in a way that fits the expectations they would have. (ie experiences in different RPG's, knowledge of occult sciences etc) Wink

I imagine that if you would like to get promoted, you might be able to ask them if there are any areas of expertise they would want you to expand our knowledge in prior to your work. (Although this is just a guess on my part)

Ending Recruitment

http://saver.co/2011/01/saver-corporation-ending-recruitment-phase/

recruitment ends saturday at midnight? read above for details

"We have had a lot of agents apply, especially within the last few weeks. At this point over 100 new agents have been accepted, and 7 have been dismissed or were disqualified."

hmmmm, I wonder who was dismissed/disqualified (if any)

nighthawk??? you still with us???

p.s. wtg's email was shortish, but imaginative and he got a 3...so I don't think you need to write a tome, but show that you have thought about it

I think you missed the most important part of that blog post:

"Recruits holding positions in Research, Development, or Media divisions will be tasked with their first assignments on Saturday."

We get assignments TOMORROW! Awesome!!!

Its strange how they are ranking people. I wrote absolutely nothing into the extra's box and I got rank #2. I wonder if it has to do when you applied for the position?

I can not WAIT till tomorrow. This will be my second ARG besides Jejune and I am stoked!
