    Thanks. I am aiming to focus more on work-related motivations but am apprehensive that they would fall short against candidates who also have personal reasons.

    @Jessica Booker Wondering if personal ties to a region are questioned in an interview? among other reasons I am planning to mention having extended family in the region in passing. Asking as this is not family I am particularly close to and have not visited them before.

    Anyone applied to PMC? I did but can’t see my app on their portal. I wrote them an email to confirm receipt of my application since I never got a confirmation email either but no response from them.

    Sorry I phrased that weird, I am not quite too sure what I am talking about either! I am referring to curveball questions like "how many credit cards are there in the UK", "should the PM travel in a driverless car" etc.

    Does anyone have advice on trick, ethical “PM in a driverless car” type questions. I understand you can’t prep for them but any guidance on how to go about them will be super helpful?

    Hi, can anyone who has done the OC in-person AC please share their experience on what it was like and the best way to prepare. I believe there will be a group exercise, panel interview, and WG. Thank you so much!

    I haven't yet. The emails mentions we have to book before the link expires but it does not say when it expires :/ I will be travelling from quite far so I have written to them to confirm this, waiting on their reply now. What about you?

    Hi, when answering 'why commercial law' in a VI is it okay that I only mention events at firms other than the one the application is for? I don't want it to seem like the answer is being copy pasted from another app and/or that I have not properly researched the firm.

    I got the same, I thought it might be their way of saying they're still screening VIs in response to many people asking about the status of their application rather than a 'progress'. Not sure?
