Completing an Assignment

Universities, workforce development entities, non-profits, and other organizations utilize assignments to provide specific questions or lessons to their users.


Keep in mind that assignments are a little bit different from Practice Sets. You may have a due date, time, and take limits, or specific review criteria.


Assignment videos are now stored in My Videos along with your Practice videos.

Take Limits

Your assignment may have "take limits" (a maximum number of recording attempts). If you run out of takes, you can ask your instructor to reset them. It is up to the instructor’s discretion to allow additional takes.


Review and Submit Assignment

Once you have completed all the questions/lessons in the assignment, click Submit Assignment. You'll have an opportunity to review your videos and re-record if applicable. Click on Submit final answers when you are ready to submit.


Assignments are a feature on the Big Interview Platform. The Assignments tab is in the top menu within Big Interview.


If you would like to share your assignment videos, external sharing must be enabled for you to do so.


From Assignments, click on Submitted and then Share. If you don't see the Share button, external sharing has not been enabled by your instructor and you will not be able to share your videos.
