    Goodbye, Fiat: Tesla’s Investment in Bitcoin

    How nice is it to not have to consider or even worry about what he's doing on a daily basis! The only people I can think of who come close to Elon are Bezos, Zuckerberg and Chamath Palihapitiya who seems to thriving in SPAC mania right now

    Goodbye, Fiat: Tesla’s Investment in Bitcoin

    Fingers crossed you can! Vac scheme socials are brilliant and you get to go to some really cool places/do some cool things - GradRec put a lot of effort into them so hopefully you're able to enjoy!

    Yeah, @Neville Birdi makes a really important point re staying later than 17:30 - it really isn't a good look if you are just trying to put 'facetime' in at the office and actually, it can end up annoying your supervisor/partner which is obviously not what you want at all. This is one of the...

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Just a very minor point and I'm sure @Jessica Booker would agree (I hope anyway haha) I would try and avoid using words like 'fascinated' as I think they're a bit cliché. Say you're very interested by all means but I just think 'fascinated' could come across as a tad excessive. Other than that...

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    I've had no issues with doing this previously and actually did it with both firms I got vacation schemes with so that I knew what they thought I could work on prior to going on the schemes. For me, it's much easier to organise a call with GradRec and then they can go through their feedback for...

    In which case I'd try and do one transactional seat and one disputes seat so you get the best of both. Most vac schemes are two weeks so you get a week in each one :)

    I chose the seats/departments that interested me the most tbh! That way I felt I would be able to do better work as I would enjoy the tasks I was given more :)
