    Thanks so much for this James! I know in my case we only get one associate mentor in our chosen area but could pick out top three from the departments. As someone who finds energy really fascinating I chose the corporate seat in that and two disputes seats because I think I have a genuine...

    Honestly yes, even if its not for the AC it just gives such a great and clear overview of the city that its a great reference book!

    I am really sorry to hear this! I tested positive for covid before my AC too and it was not fun. The first thing I did was let graduate recruitment know and see if I could be moved (in my case this wasn’t possible). I also mentioned it to my interviewers. Honestly listen to your body, if you...
