    GOT MY TC OFFER TODAY! IM GOING TO BE A LAWYER!

    I'm going to write a fuller post because I think there's a lot that has to be said about the TC process that isn't really discussed on this forum (and I have been using it for years - I mean check my username, I've been here since 2021) but especially when it comes to International Students and...

    Mine was 1,033 - I think it's fine, they don't have a word count for a reason and as long as you're not fluffing it up gratuitously it's OK!

    Recruitment heads can stay there like gargoyles atop a gothic french church, for ages and ages... or move on to the next role just like you'd find with any other profession without the turnover rate of hospitality. Best bet is to LinkedIn 'people' + 'recruitment' + 'firm name' and see the hints...

    PLEASE ELABORATE ON THESE, I would love to read your TC journey because these debates/arguments sound (obviously not at the time!!!) like they are hilarious material -- like what did they say to press your buttons?? I did an interview with R&G where I said, to the Private Equity partner...

    Hey Axel, can you give more information on this? I have one VS from my first cycle, this is my second and I've missed VS deadlines for personal reasons but TC deadlines are still open. Don't have loads of legal experience except a couple of internships during uni (I'm 24) and finished the PGDL...

    As long as you delivered it in a tone which showed you genuinely wanted them to know you've progressed and are proud of yourself for being a different, better candidate than when you received your last PFO from them, I think it's golden. But if you said it in a resentful tone in which you wanted...
