    Not a failed experiment from where I stand. Those stories and the music (lol) came to define parts of my journey. Moreso the difficult ones. I will be very excited when its back. For now, I'll keep recommending it as much as I can. Superb work and hope all you're working on comes to full fruition.

    Hi @Jaysen, hope you're doing well. I found the TCLA podcast very essential in my journey to a TC. I was wondering why it is no longer being produced. Is there a possibility that it may return? I have recommended it to almost everyone I know. So this is also a thank you message for putting it...

    I would say ask! People I've met find it nice when you ask if it's okay to shake their hands. It's respectful and courteous. Alternatively, read the room! If people are doing it, it should be okay. If not, then it probably isn't. But be mindful as well that while others might be shaking hands...

    Thank you for this. I think I will go ahead and do that! The firm took 5 months to get back and I wrote them off only to be stunned with an invite today yet I had looked elsewhere already, unfortunately.

    Withdrawing from the recruitment process entirely. Do I just email and say I am no longer interested in the scheme? Is there a good way to put that?

    I found forage particularly useful for my technical knowledge. Not so much firm knowledge apart from seeing how that firm would approach clients and their work. For instance, in terms of technique, I completed a forage internship with CC during which I was able to see some email templates the...

    Was it because you had an offer or they just let you know?

    I have a burning question. Under what circumstances does someone who has interviewed for a summer vacation scheme, get offered a training contract instead? Is it because they are outstanding or due to the demands of the business? @Jessica Booker

    Haha, its really about being positive isn't it? Anyway, I think its best to simply wait for when the call comes: whatever the outcome.

    No, they didn't. But I assume they are since someone was told they are replying in batches.

    "Hi [redacted my name], Thank you for your email. We are in the process of making outcome calls. We are hoping to deliver all outcomes today but this may go into next week due to the volume of calls we have to make." This came in from CC today morning. Thought I'd put it here to reduce...
