Well after my sixth time of trying to apply with LF (I'm former WFL) I logged into the Leapforce account to check the status of my application. Once I logged in, it told me that I was now in the qualification phase and to check my email for instructions on completing the qualifications. I was so excited that I immediately logged into that email - nothing. I log back in at LF and it says that same message. I go back to my email and still nothing. I go back to LF one more time and the message is back to the "We are reviewing your application" status. I'm so bummed. But I think at this point it wasn't meant to be so I'm not going to apply anymore. Good luck and congrats to all that have been hired!

Idawg--how did you apply six times, did you use six different emails? Wow...I used two and am still waiting, former WFL rater. I think the WFL raters go into a black hole somewhere and sit and sit and sit. I read on other forums, that some people get notified like in a couple of hours after they apply. I am not sure that LF wants former raters, but you would think they would want the experience??? Anyway, I don't blame you for being bummed, it is very frustrating. Hang in there.

Yes, I did use six different emails. After a while it gets difficult trying to think of new ones..lol. I do know that a few former WFL raters have been hired, but they have been very far and few in between. Usually I get the reject email after a few hours, but this time it's been at least a month. I know a couple of other people (not former WFL) who are in the same boat. I chalk it up to being the end of the year, they might not be hiring. But anyways, I'm not going to chase after them anymore. If they don't want me, they don't want me. Time to move on. Good luck, I really hope you get a chance to test for them.

I'm also a former WFL rater and have been waiting so long I finally got a call center job at night. I couldn't wait anymore. In a different thread I saw that a lot of WFL raters were either rejected or never even contacted by LF. I'm not certain what that says about the reputation of raters from WFL. lol I think I'll try again once more and then give up, you never know.
Good luck, maybe it will happen.

For what it's worth, it seems like former WFL raters have had better luck with LB over LF. It may be worth applying to one of their positions.
I am also a previous WFL rater and my application has been "In Process" for over 2 months with LF.

Thanks for all your replies everyone. I am hesitant to go to LB as there are a lot of negative posts about them. But might have to as LF does not seem to want to hire former WFL raters. Not dying to do the call center thing, burned out on that, did it for a long time before this gig. Anyway, good luck to all of you.

Hi Brennen. Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, LB doesn't hire in my state (CA) for the independent contractor position. Also, I was an Internet Judge with them last year, and it was less than desireable.

For all of you WFL raters, don't give up. I applied back in Aug/Sept. with LF. Got accepted then ran into a problem (I was shown as still working for WFL). Had to fight to clear that up and got accepted again. Been working for a little over a week now. I think it's a luck of the draw with all of them. So don't give up hope (but don't sit around waiting either, smile)...
