Bored Panda are scammers.

I applied to their job listing from their site
boredpanda.com, they were looking for a remote video editor 6 months ago.

First interview wasn't scheduled, they wanted a 'quick test' which turned out to be 11 minute YouTube video. I am sure they monetized it, but forgot to pay me for my 'quick test' work of 2 full working days.

They said thank you and will contact you.
I presume and they only wanted free work, since the job listing is still available. Never got paid.

Thanks, I just applied for this job, I will be carefull knowing this ❤️

Test = fee work. I always reply back with a quote for services. They usually do not reply back after that.

Really?!?! Because I applies to their job posting - had an interview scheduled last week and then they said they wanted 3 sample videos to be produced for which they will draw up a contract - they asked for my full name home address and passport information driver's license. I got weirded out and asked they would instead take my Paypal information - but they were very quick to say - which now has me concerned that a scam is afoot and then I see your post....

Do you think you and your significant other should have similar personalities? My significant other and I are doing long distance and I feel like when I FaceTime with him, I emote more and show interest by asking more questions but from his end, he doesn’t always have a reaction or just nods, and it makes me feel like he’s uninterested. On his end he sees it as he’s comfortable.
