    Hello! Just clarifying - is this a separate report from the Capp assessment report detailing your strengths? Do they give you your actual score? Thanks!

    Hi! I completed my WG on December 24. Did you receive an invite shortly after that? Or did it take a few weeks? Thanks and happy holidays!

    Hi there! This is the telephone round. As I'm travelling in the US at the moment, I actually had to do the interview at 1.30 AM my time haha! But it went well I think.
