    I have definitely felt like this over the past days but you can only get good news if your foot is in the game :) Rejections are brutal but will only make you better for your next application :) Really wish you all the best though

    This is very helpful! Unfortunately can’t avoid testing completely as most firms use it but I do think it’s one of the most unfair criteria to judge people in this process :(

    Hi everyone :) Does anyone have any tips for the Latham behavioural assessment? Is it a usual SJT? Also how long did people need to complete this? Just need to know how to juggle this around work

    I am... I did the WG test on 17/12 and still nothing. I saw some people who did the test after me get invited to TI so I am starting to lose hope. When did you take the test if you don't mind me asking?

    Merry Christmas to everyone who is going through this app cycle (first time or tenth time). 🎄🎄🎄 May all of us end up with a training contract by the end of this - and this is my wish for this year 😂

    I have also received PFO. I have taken that SJT 4 times now and passed 2 times and failed 2 times. No idea what the deal is anymore 🤷‍♀️

    Wondering the same thing. Almost a week after they said they'd contact us with outcomes and nothing 😂 I wonder whether the people who got invited to the VI have been screened yet

    Hi everyone. In the question for great achievements, should I put down that I am in the top 1% worldwide for learning languages on Duolingo? I know it’s just an app but considering how many people use it maybe the top 1% is a great achievement? 😂

    I just got the PFO from Clyde post VI for WVS. I kinda knew it given the fact that the VS starts next week Oh well 🤷‍♀️

    This is the 4th (!!!) time I am applying to them and it's been varied. It used to be the second stage of the screening process but now they send it automatically - as someone else mentioned they just have to trigger it. I have also seen that some people got their VI invite but this is not set up...

    Mine took about 2 weeks so no it's not a PFO they just send them in batches
