    WVS offers for HL will be given out on the 27th/28th, and the scheme starts on the 5th of December. Is the firm likely to help with accommodation costs in any way? It is quite difficult to arrange things on such short notice.

    Slightly off-topic, does anyone know when firms usually have their exit interview? I imagine it is on the last day of the vac scheme, but it would be nice to know =)

    Did you just get the AC invite for the next day!? Or did you have something on that meant you had to do the AC earlier than expected?

    You could summarise what you generally did at most open days i.e. listened to speeches, walked through a case study, and then maybe hone in on some notable points or experiences and even link it back to your motivations. Don't be afraid to talk about events with firms other than the one you're...

    The Macfarlanes SJT could also be seen like this, a lot of the tests just give generic cautions for every competency.

    @Jessica Booker Im still waiting for an answer post WG from HL. Lots of PFOs recently. Generally speaking, is it getting a bit late to not expect a PFO, or is it still worth holding out for?
