I just received an interview invite like 10 minutes ago, so it's definitely giving rolling basis for interviews. Good luck to anyone who is still waiting and to those who have gotten invites! 

That's probably why they're emphasizing accepting the interview invite.

spark hire contacted me back with this response, if it helps anybody feel at ease.

"Your interview status is currently "Accepted". This status indicates that you have received the interview invite and have proceeded through the link; this status is generally perceived as the candidate, yourself, indicating that they will complete the interview prior to the given deadline."

in terms of time per question, I believe interviewees in past threads said that they had about 2 minutes to think and 1.5 minutes to answer.

I hope doing the interview later in the week doesn't count against us. Would have done it already but working FT.

I just did my interview. They have generic questions, so really not much to prepare for. I would say just do it. You can practice by just saying things on camera and watching your self  to make sure you are comfortable in front of the camera. Besides that, just dress nice for the camera and give you it your best shot asap. No point in stressing about it anymore than you have to. Good luck everybody.

Congrats on your interview! Was there a 5th optional question too?

Same here, I also work full time. I have not had the time to prep!

I just finished my interview, It wasn't too bad. I'd suggest practice being comfortable with the camera and attempt to not look around too much. I took small pieces of notes, but I fear for one question I relied on it too much. Most are generic questions, however, one stumped me. For the challenging task use the STAR method.

Specializes in Medical Assistant and CNA.

Just completed mine. :))

Advice: just be natural and don't read off a script! Really don't stress too much about it, it will work out someway or another.

Congrats everyone!

I've read somewhere that we are the ones asking the 5th optional question. Can someone clarify if it's true?

This is true. Maybe use it to clarify something on your resume or if there is any gaps between jobs... 

Best of luck.

Hmm that probably means they want to get decisions out around the 10th
