Obviously I'm not an expert but I definitely don't think that would be an immediate no. That sentence will be such a minor part of your application. I must've made 4 mistakes in 4 different applications (and I'm talking really obvious like repeating a word or missing out words) and I got through...- collie_121

If you finish all the other sections of your application you should be able to go back and change details when you get the chance to review it before you send :)- collie_121

I just talked about 3 of their USPs and the sort of schemes/awards that evidence this and how they give the firm a competitive advantage. I then did a short concluding sentence at the end of each paragraph as to why I favoured OC in this respect over the other firms I applied to. Hope this helps! :)- collie_121

Hey! I have also just got an email about VI and am interested to know this. Also, if anyone has any tips/guidance as to the type of questions that would be great! They haven't given much info (unless I haven't found it) about what it entails.- collie_121

There is lots and lots of vac schemes still open if you didn't want to wait until next year! I think there is a thread that has the deadlines detailed in them. I know I have lots of applications still to go. You do what you think is best for you :)- collie_121

SAME! I was so thrown off, spoke about inventing something that already existed. In all truth, I definitely expected this rejection.- collie_121

Hi Jessica! I was just wondering whether my understanding of this question is correct. 'What will drive you to succeed at TW?' Is this almost a why the firm question? Would I link why I want to work at/what draws me to the firm with how this would keep me motivated? Or how should I interpret it...- collie_121

I was also so confused at this question. I couldn't bring myself to completely just list bullet points because I felt the need to fill the word count. What I did was 3 'bullet points' and wrote a substantial description underneath each. I have had no reply from them post-test so who knows if...- collie_121
