#REDACTED TRACKER INTERVIEW FREE#

In the meantime, you can do something else.įeel free to talk to others in #RED-invites about anything appropriate, but avoid interview topics and chatting while you are being interviewed. It is enough if you check your IRC client every ~20 minutes to see whether your interview has started or not. You are not required to focus all your attention to what is happening in the channel all the time. Although it seems like a lot of interviewers are in the channel, many of them may be 'idling' (they are in the channel but are unable to interview). Be sure to have that amount of time available before joining the queue! But I've waited forever!Īll of our interviewers are RED users who voluntarily interview, so you may have to wait a while before you are interviewed. Be aware that a standard, passing interview can take between 1h and 2h. Then wait for an interviewer to interview you. For example, !queue, or !queue, or !queue

Click on the 'Share Link' button (small blue chain icon near the top right).īack in #RED-invites, type: '!queue' (without the quotation marks) followed by your speedtest link.

If not, use the 'Change Server' link to select the closest one - even if it results in a higher ping or slightly slower speeds.

Verify the default server is geographically close to you.

If you live at college, please explain this to your interviewer. In order to join the queue, you will have to take a speedtest on your home connection (remember, you may ONLY interview on your HOME CONNECTION!). IRC Server: Port: 6667 (+6697 for SSL)Īfter you have connected to RED's IRC network, type: '/join #RED-invites' (without the quotation marks) and follow the directions in the topic.

CLI clients (e.g., irssi, Weechat) are prohibited for the interview. RED is the easiest to get into, they have interviews just like what.cd used to have.

You may connect from your university dormitory. For English RED, Pedros BT & Orpheus are top. Mobile data connections, proxies, VPNs, Remote Desktops (TeamViewer, VNC, RDP, etc), bouncers (e.g., Quassel, The Lounge, ZNC, IRCcloud), shells, office lines, and other non-home connections (including using your friend's home connection) are not allowed. YOU MAY ONLY INTERVIEW WHEN YOU ARE AT HOME AND DIRECTLY CONNECTED. Once you have downloaded, installed, and set up your IRC client, read on! Connecting to RED's IRC Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a beefier version of chat clients you may be used to, like AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) or Yahoo! Messenger. The Redacted.ch interview takes places on IRC.
