Can I try again if I failed?

The process to become a fully fledged KnowMore Platform designer takes time and is not easy. We appreciate your persistence, however it is not possible to restart the process or retake specific parts of it to become a PowerPoint designer on the platform. Therefore we highly recommend to first study all of our materials and be well prepared before starting with the application process.

Application

If you reach a minimum standard, reviewers will allow you to try again. However if you fail, we will not reset your application. The standard for passing the test is very high.

Test projects and final interview

During the application process, we observe your design and technical skills, the behaviour and communication you exhibit during the two test projects and finally in the interview we focus on your logic, comprehension and abstraction skills. The decision to allow you to move into the Assessment phase is based on the combination of your results in all of these steps.

Assessment phase

In the assessment phase you need to continuously receive good ratings to be able to get new projects. Should you get a series of bad ratings, finding projects and getting allocated to them will become less likely.
