Hotsourced Arvostelua 

I had applied for the position of Financial Operations Associate with Hotsourced on 21-May-2025. I got a reply from Founder - Andrew Browning via Linkedin that i am selected for the technical round with Test Gorilla. I gave the test on 28-May-2025 and did very well in that. I got an email from Hotsourced on 30-May-2025 that i have cleared the technical round and that i should take the video assessment round.

However due to an issue with the Hotsourced video assessment portal my videos were not getting recorded and uploaded. Also i could not upload the completed excel worksheet which was part of video assessment round.

I am worried a lot now as i have sent emails to Andrew Browning and his India team member. Have not received any reply as of now and the company has suggested that it is better to take the test within 48 hours.

Request Hotsourced to rectify the bug in the Video assessment portal and allow me to complete my assessment round.

The experience with Hotsourced except this incident has been too good and i hope they would help me here as this was beyond my control.

Update:

Andrew Browning personally arranged a online call now on 02nd June 2025 and we tried to rectify the issue but i think the problem was due to some unknow factor. He was very very professional and helpful and suggested an alternate way to proceed.

Irrespective of whether i would be selected or not, the professionalism showed by Hotsourced and its Founder Andrew Browning was commendable.

I change my rating to 5 Star and also recommend Hotsourced to all UK companies as everything is professional and ethical.

Firstly i got mail that i have been selected for the interview of customer service representative lead role.
Once i started my interview the first part was mcq that done without an hitch but then came the part where we had record our videos within the stipulated time frame and then upload it.
But whenever i recorded the video instead of uploading the video that i have recorded. It used to upload the video where i am sitting idle and waiting for the video to be uploaded. So it used to overwrite final video i just took. There seems to be a huge bug in your interview system interface. Please resolve this so that i can give the second part of my interview i dont have much time to complete the second part of the interview and i am afraid if do it like this it will over write video of me sitting idly waiting for the video to upload and no answers will be actually uploaded that you guys are asking and this will in turn drop my chances for selection please help.
I already tried reaching you guys on your contact page yet i have not received any input or response from you.

2 stars for the test that was presented but no update after giving the test even though it was promised.
It's funny companies look for dedicated people who will reply to customers on time yet they can't grow the same value in their own working.

We had an absolutely brilliant experience working with Hotsourced.

From the start, Andy and the team were incredibly thorough, supportive, and genuinely invested in understanding our needs. Their communication was excellent throughout, and they provided thoughtful insight and advice at every stage.

We successfully hired an outstanding candidate through their service and couldn’t be happier with the result. Highly recommend Hotsourced to any business looking for a recruitment partner that truly delivers.

I am writing to inform you of an issue I've encountered while submitting my assignment and recording the video for the job application process. Unfortunately, I am experiencing a technical problem with the video recording tool that is limiting my recording time to just 14 seconds. This has made it extremely challenging to answer the questions in a detailed and comprehensive manner as required for the application.

I’ve tried several times to record the video, but the tool consistently cuts off at 14 seconds, and I’m unable to provide the full responses. I wanted to bring this to your attention, as I’m eager to apply and showcase my skills properly but am currently hindered by this technical limitation.

Could you kindly assist with this issue or advise on an alternative solution so that I can submit my application correctly?

Interview not evaluated or no response
I took the assessment for Senior Backend role through testgorilla on 10 April 2025. I did not get any response/feedback from them. Can anyone help me out here?

Hey there,

I took the assessment from Hotsourced on 12th March, 2025 and have not received any feedback yet. Can anyone help me out here? It was for the role - Quality analyst - Data annotator. Andrew had sent me a personal message on Linkedin with the assessment link.

I had an amazing experience with Hotsouced. Their recruitment process was incredibly thorough, and they paid such close attention to details that it enabled me to be informed and prepared at every step.

What truly stood out was Andrew Browing's dedication beyond just recruitment. He provided valuable guidance throughout the onboarding process, equipping me with the knowledge and confidence to excel in my new position as well as assuring me that he would remain a source of support, always available to answer any questions or provide clarity.

I highly recommend his/their services.

I had an outstanding experience interviewing with Hotsourced. While the process was thorough and a bit lengthy, it was completely understandable given the need to carefully sift through numerous applications—and ultimately, it was well worth the wait. Andy played a crucial role in helping me secure an amazing position with a reputable startup in the UK. His guidance and support throughout the entire process made everything incredibly smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Hotsourced to anyone who has the skills and drive to succeed, and is looking for a fantastic opportunity with some of the top organizations in the UK, all with the added benefit of a flexible remote work setting. I’m incredibly grateful to Hotsourced and Andy for this amazing opportunity.

My experience was very genuine and honest. It requires the right amount of trust and patience to hear back from the team and understand that everything takes time.

My interview journey started on 11 Sep till 27 Sep and at the end I couldn't make it after 4-5 rounds including written, self video and three face to face interviews. Having said that it's a genuine learning experience to go through the process and work on the self based on the feedback given at the end , keeping in mind you will surely hear back if the profile matches (which did in my case).

Thankful for the learning experience!

HotSourced has been a blessing in disguise for me, as it has broadened the horizon of opportunities which are not limited to India but abroad as well. Andrew has been a great help in making the onboarding smooth and the team has been always supportive. Definitely recommended! Cheers 🥂

I am incredibly grateful to Hotsourced for providing me with the opportunity to work with their client. From the initial assessment and feedback to interview scheduling and onboarding, Andrew was exceptionally supportive. Hotsourced has a remarkable ability to match the right talent with the right company. I'm proud to have been hired through them and look forward to a long-lasting professional relationship

They should change their name from Hotsourced to Cold-Unsourced 😡😡😡.

I feel HOTSOURCED is a fake recruitment company, they’re just gathering personal information. They don’t offer any jobs, believe me. Finally, they will Auto-Reply / same copy paste reply when responding to the status of your job application via email without human touch. Simply pathetic. Now someone will come with clarification and will ask me to send email to them 😂😂😂😂😂. Kindly STOP making candidates Fool. Have some Moral code of business ETHICS.
