PFO from HSF Summer VS. I put so much effort into the app, really thought it would at least make it to the AC. Kinda crushed about it :')

    So sorry to hear :( I was rejected 3 years in a row by HSF and every time it crushed me so I understand how you feel. Relax today, pick yourself back up, and redirect your efforts into another firm!!!! Everything will work out in the end!!!!

    Did you get your application reviewed by Jaysen? If not, definitely do so! I submitted a rejected application retrospectively this year and it helped me so much :)

    We are all with you and this is just one step in your journey, you will get there ❤️

    Oh dear, I don't know if this means they mistakenly rejected you, or not. @Jessica Booker - I think the candidate should email/call them?
    Yes - definitely would contact them to check. The only time this wouldn't be an error at the firms end is if the person has applied twice and they have rejected one application where it is a duplicate (fairly common)

    Hey guys,
    I have the Watson Glaser coming up for FF and I'm so lost on some questions. Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong? For the Virtual Employees question, my thinking is that the paragraph doesn't in anyway say what proportion of employees work from home - it just simply never mentions it. So, there's insufficient data? For the plastic bag one, I'm even MORE confused. If all bags are noisy and some aren't reusable, surely that means some are reusable? and would therefore be both noisy and reusable?! I'm honestly baffled.
    Any help appreciated.

    I agree with the confusion around the plastic bag one, as I would have chosen' conclusion follows' too.

    For the first one about the virtual employees, what is the statement? I can't see it
