Ok, I am very upset and hurt about this. I just took a test for a remote coding position. The test took me about 2 days to complete due to the length. I found out today that I did not pass it, by 9 whole points. I know that I did everything correctly. As I was completing the test, I noticed that the last time it was updated was November 2003, so I am thinking that may have something to do with it, I can't say for sure though. I am so tired of taking these pre-employment exams only to be told that I did not pass and it's not like I do not know how to code.
I seriously need a job. I don't know if anyone else understands how I feel about this, it is very discouraging to apply for jobs day in and day out and the ones that do respond send you a test only to tell you that you did not pass it. I am so tired right now, I have basically cried my eyes out about this failure. Maybe I need to give up coding all together. I would hate to but it's just not working out right now and I just renewed my membership. I have no clue what is prohibiting me from passing these exams, maybe they need to update their exams/codes as the ICD-9 is updated. I don't know, but what I do know is that I am truly hurt over this because I put so much time and effort into it, I really wanted this position.
Well anyways, just venting. If anyone has any advice, remote job leads (one that you know will call back and not just say that they are hiring) or tips I would greatly appreciate it.
