Interview
The HR rep needed my actual college degree so I brought it in so they could make a copy. I was with a group of people and we all were given a presentation about the details of being a scorer, along with various scenarios we would be be placed in. We also had a discussion on confidentiality and keeping the information secure. No test items were allowed to leave the scoring center and neither were we allowed to discuss test criteria outside of the scoring room. Its been a few years since I worked there, but I had a good experience when I worked for this company.
