    What's a good strategy to secure a VS? Two years of applying and just rejection after rejection, I've gotten past the application stage twice, I'm definitely doing something wrong.

    I hate online tests! I did a test for Trowers, and I got collaboration as an area of weakness... that looks so bad. My former employers have praised me for being a team player, and I love working with other people. Tests are not a good reflection of what someone is like😭 This is the first time...

    UPDATE: i've been feeling down recently and have lacked the motivation to draft applications. i have uni deadlines coming up and i feel quite overwhelmed BUT im pushing through as if i cant handle this, i wouldnt handle being a lawyer. but, i am human and everyone goes through depressing...
