There is a crowd going by the name of Humbletons advertising for a job as a Race Analyst on Racenets classifieds.
You are told you will be analysing races from video recording they send you.

On enquiring they send you a set of rather in-depth racing related questions for you to answer.
I have my susspicions as to exactly what they are doing with the feedback from these questions, is there a job at all...

Has anyone applied for this job and been sucessful ?

In this day and age it pays to be suspicious.

If in fact if there is no job at all - and this is a marketing tool.

Beware the A.C.C.C.

I had a look on Racenet and could not find the ad. Has it been taken out?

Dude,

Any chance of getting a copy of the e-mail that Humbleton sent you? Racenet informed me that Humbleton's may have deleted the ad so I can not respond to them. Funny I can't find them on the internet either??

I currently do this sort of data entry for my own purposes and am interested in what they are looking for.

Pete,
After I responded they sent the questionare via the post, which I filled in and sent back, didnt think to copy it at the time..

There were 20 questions, things like....
* What do you consider is the importance of Pace compared to Speed ?
There where lots of questions depicting certain scenarios and conditions, asking your selection process.
