Forum:How long does a hiring application take to be completed

I sent my Hiring Application for the post of Gaming Content Intern to hiring@wikia-inc.com. a week ago, last friday and I still haven't received the reply. Is there something wrong with the Wikia email? Please help. Do you know someone I can contact about Hiring? Arceus The God of Pokemon 05:56, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * It most likely works like all other jobs, if you didn't get hired, they aren't going to contact you. You only hear from them if they hire you.--


 * Nope, my friend didn't get hired and they sent him a reply, "Sorry. You aren't the eligible candidate." or smthing. Arceus The God of Pokemon 06:10, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Very few places do that. I have turned in 10 applications in the past month and haven't heard from them. Most places do not call if they aren't hiring you.--


 * wikia@hiring-inc.com? lol, it should be hiring@wikia-inc.com --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 08:46, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * I laughed out loud for like a minute :P. -- Zombie talk • blog 09:39, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Arceus be patient. Being impatient can cost you the hiring. Plus "Patience pays".


 * Yea, sorry. Mispelled. But I sent it to hiring@wikia-inc.com, but does it take 1 week to hire someone? The Community Support sends the reply in 1 day. Arceus The God of Pokemon 14:01, June 4, 2011 (UTC)

(Unindent) You misspelled it again :P. Community Support and Hiring are 2 completely different things. Not only different people, but also different ways they handle the incoming requests. And it is actually likely they won't send you anything back if you're not hired, that's what happens in the real world I'm afraid. - Tjcool007 (Talk / Contribs) 14:12, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sorry, but it does send you back. It sent my friend. :) Arceus The God of Pokemon 14:54, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * That means nothing. Even if someone else gets a reply, that still doesn't mean you'll get one. Also, evaluating a Hiring application does take quite some time, especially if there are many candidates for the position. - Tjcool007 (Talk / Contribs) 14:56, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * I agree with Tj. It is not that you won't get a reply, it's you "may" not get a reply.


 * Never mind, I sent another application for German Entertainment Content Editor. :D Arceus The God of Pokemon 15:16, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sprechen Sie Deutsch?--


 * Ähm.. ist das wirklich so?.. you don't speak German, thus I cannot follow up with you on that (please don't apply to positions if you know that you don't speak that language). Also, be patient - it took 2 years for me to become part of Wikia Staff and some hard work until there as a volunteer. I once applied to an English position as well, and it took about two weeks until I got an response. Marc-Philipp   (Talk)  19:59, June 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ok, Mr. Marc-Philip... but who cares if I can't speak German? I'll just use Google translate! :D Silver.png I am Arceus, the God of Pokemon!!  Red.png 11:48, June 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * Uh... that won't work. Google Translate often gives irregular translations. Mr. Grille (talk page) 11:59, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

(Unindent) @Arceus: Seriously? Wikia is a professional business, I doubt they'd ever choose a German Content manager that has to use google translate. Not to say that Google translate will most likely not always be available whenever you work. Why are you applying for any job just to have a job? Do you need money badly? Please don't underestimate these jobs. You are payed for them, so that means it'll be hard work. Don't do it just for the staff status, that won't end well. - Tjcool007 (Talk / Contribs) 12:12, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

No, I just want Helper or Wikia Staff Membership. And I'll take up any job for that. Though I'd like to work for Wikia, I don't care if the job has Helper or Wikia Staff Membership along with it, I just want to work for Wikia for fun. And I'm only applying for unpaid-volunteering non-contracted jobs. If it comes with special rights, all the better! :D  I am Arceus, the God of Pokemon!!   15:22, June 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * If you're only applying for the rights and to have fun with them, instead of wanting to grow Wikia, I am pretty sure your application will be denied. Zombie talk •  blog 15:33, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree with Bob. Oh and Arceus, your should change your sig before a staff deletes them.


 * He's applying because he wants to demote Charitwo, and possibly Ciencia. He also wants the title. "Hmph, I'm closing my request. I'm putting support for you so that you can become a petty admin. while I become a Wikia Helper, which have Bureaucrat Status on ALL Wikis. ;D --Arceus The God of Pokemon (talk) 17:13, May 31, 2011 (UTC)" on my RfA and . Not for the good of wikia. 15:36, June 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm pretty much sure your application will be denied if you just signed up for that and not for the good of wikia. And also by the way you are acting, I think it will be denied.

If I may say so, you threw any chance at a job at Wikia in the bin with the ignorance you've shown in this forum. --Callofduty4 15:45, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Agreed, Callofduty4. Mr. Grille  (talk page) 15:49, June 5, 2011 (UTC) Agreed as well, CoD4. Cpl.Bohater 15:50, June 5, 2011 (UTC) It is obvious Arceus just wants the rights. Heck, a couple days ago he went around and criticized Wikia staff on every page he could! Mr. Grille (talk page) 15:52, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Dont really know who he is, but if he just wants the rights, he's not qualified. DrkDragonz6615:53, June 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * I agree with Callofduty4. @Grille, yeah he did that.


 * Don't get us wrong, Arceus. You aren't a bad Wikia user at all. You just need to know that being a staffer or helper is a big responsibility that sadly, you aren't qualified for. Zombie talk •  blog 16:02, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * BassJapas, you are prohibited from commenting on my forums. And the rest of you Users, I'm getting my application done in 1 week. Also, Mr. Grille, is this sig ok? If not, I can still use it in other Wikis, right? Gold.png Red.png I am...Arceus...The God...of Pokemon!  N.png 16:14, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * If you've actaully read your talk page, you're allowed one image, and please make the image smaller, they are very disruptive to the conversation  Random Time  16:16, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * You are not at liberty to prohibit someone from editing anything on Community Central. Your sig still uses multiple pictures, which is a violation of the policy that was linked on your talk page, and it still disrupts the line it is on.

No, this sig is not "ok". It's bloody huge. Also, your application's not going to pass. Don't have delusions of grandeur. You can't prevent people from voicing their opinions on your forums either. --Callofduty4 16:17, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Arceus, in order for your sig to work you have to upload the photos to each wiki you go to. Mr. Grille  (talk page) 16:19, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Actually, I'm not. Unless the forum is protected to Sysop only, I'm allowed to comment in it. It's not my fault that what you've done needed to be shown. So I still recommend you grow up, because you're immaturity is annoying more users than me. 16:19, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
