Does anyone have any advice for written exercise prep? I just had a feedback call post an AC that I was rejected from and they said I lost the offer in the written exercise, so I really wanna work on that aspect for any future ACs
I think I saw someone say on the forum recently that they had either been invited to the HSF AC, or completed the HSF AC, but were told that HSF’s Spring VS was full and that HSF was recruiting for Summer VS’ only from now on. Best of luck for HSF! 🙂
Wedlake Bell PFO, today is not my day lol
Goodwin post-VI rejection at 09:45, 41 days later 😔 This one was important to me, so I shall indulge in a small morsel of a rant.
I could've sworn I nailed it, but now, it feels like I wasn't worth speaking with a real person. I don't even get told why. I went to a world-class business school and understand high-innovation clients like the back of my hand. I have four years of legal experience and a plethora of activities demonstrating commitment to the field. I go out of my way to speak with those at all levels, from lawyers and their clients to literal presidents. I get it's competitive, but if I could just talk with those hiring over a coffee instead of having to play these games - I'd make light work of a real conversation. I even had some practice with a former recruiter. Ah, well. I'll get over it soon enough.
Does anyone have advice for those struggling to get past the VI/TI stage? Especially when you think you'd perform well in a proper back-and-forth interview. What is that trying to tell me? Man, it's so hard to decrypt everything. Maybe I also need to just keep playing the numbers game as this was only my third VI, plus one TI. Is this stage even worth giving myself any credit? I did improve upon last year's post-app rejection, though... unless that was just because they fabricated a new stage this year 😭

Have you heard back from RPC? I submitted on 13th and then did the test. But haven't heard back yet
@Ram Sabaratnam @Amma Usman @Andrei Radu Received a VS offer! Any advice on what to do prior to this to prep for the VS?
Hi! Yeah, I got a VS offer the day after the AC. I was in the very first AC so I don't actually know when the other ACs are taking place, I'm sorry!
That's horrific to hear! The competition is seriously ridiculous if people like you don't even have more success. I do wonder how many firms you have applied to... Maybe it is worth considering applying to 50-60 firms (if you have the time and energy!), as I heard some people manage to do that. I also get rejected consistently and it is a terrible feeling, especially if you wait for weeks, sometimes months, to only be rejected without any feedback or reasoning. Very frustrating!Goodwin post-VI rejection at 09:45, 41 days later 😔 This one was important to me, so I shall indulge in a small morsel of a rant.

Hi everyone! I haven’t heard back from HSF post-test (I did pass it) so I’m a little worried. Do you guys think I should email them and ask? Or should I assume PFO. Or should I leave it alone? <3
Did the WBD SJT- score high for verbal, middle for numerical and 7 for both grit/creative force, 4 for digital mindset and 3 for applied intellect.
21/36 so hopefully I’ve passed the benchmark.. 🤞🏽
