I know I'm kind of late here, but I've been thinking of applying for the Fic Intake Team for months and months, but was always too daunted by the application form.
So since you seem to know a lot about the application progress, I just decided to ask: Is it really as hard as the application form makes it sound? Is there a certain leeway so that someone can still work for the team even though they don't fulfill *all* of the requirements? For example, I'm pretty good at spelling, but I completely suck at picking the right prepositions, because English is not my first language and that kind of thing just doesn't come naturally to me. And while I'm fairly knowledgeable about Canon, I don't know a lot about other sources, like the stuff JKR published on her website.
I guess what it all boils down to is: Do you think they're desperate enough to take me?
