    KENNEDYS SQE TRAINING PROGRAMME

    Are you applying for the SQE or a TC? If a TC, I think that is for 2022, with the exception of one of their offices being for 2021.

    KENNEDYS SQE TRAINING PROGRAMME

    My deadline was Monday, so I did mine Friday night. This probaby meant it didn't get viewed until at least the Monday though because of the weekend.

    KENNEDYS SQE TRAINING PROGRAMME

    I’m the same! I think some Q’s I didn’t expect coming. I thought they would be more firm based! Don’t worry everyone is on the same level, and it’s so hard to assess whether you have done well when it’s on yourself. When it’s on ourself, it’s easy for us to think “omg I was so awkward then”...

    KENNEDYS SQE TRAINING PROGRAMME

    Sorry, I’m not sure if I was clear. I mean on the email they said to consider doing your VI as early as possible, which probably means they review them on a rolling basis. Obviously they may take a holistic approach like you said and take them all into account. But, I fear that if an app was...

    How much impact do you think the time of your application had on your success rate? I did mine today, but I am worried that they already filled up their spaces, or won’t review until Monday now anyway!

    There should have been a “resuming your assessment” email link which got sent to you when you started the interview. Maybe try this if you haven’t! Anyway best of luck and hopefully they let you redo it :)

    KENNEDYS SQE TRAINING PROGRAMME

    As long as your answers aren’t terrible, I would generally say the most off putting is if you don’t show yourself off in an approachable way. Don’t get too bugged down, I’m sure you aced it ! 😀

    Thanks for this :) I thought there would be at least about the firm which is strange!

    It is easy to assume unfortunately, not that it is necessarily correct to do so. I can see where you are coming from, but I think many people may be more inclined to reply to someone’s question asking if they had heard back from X firm, rather than posting “I have heard back off X firm” out the...

    I think because if people have had heard back receiving offers, it might be easy to assume you have a PFO. Besides, it’s also just interesting to find out whether they have started the ‘review’ process.

    Thankyou. I did this and it is blank. It always has been and all my other apps which show are blank on the ‘status’ part.

    I am so confused. Mine is just blank with nothing and I have done my SST? Which portal is it?

    2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion

    I am someone who needs extra time in exams and what you have just said I fear is sometimes what employers may think. I do understand what you are trying to say, but just because someone takes longer on tasks, does not mean they are any less efficient. For example, it takes me longer to complete...

    Hi, what did the test entail on the Cognify section? Is it maths based ones?
