    I applied for Weil before Christmas, took me two weeks to hear about the next stage but I think they're also busy with spring vac scheme so may take longer! I don't think it's wrong to email but I also don't think it's uncommon for firms to take about a month for initial app review either!
    Sounds like a few people have been waiting a... weil.

    @Jaysen if you need to fire me now i totally get it, no hard feelings.

    This is shocking.

    I think no matter the outcome from Taylor Vinters and PwC, I will be giving feedback to grad rec about how awful the assessment is!

    Same, 100% - I had never done one before and TV's email made it sound like the aptitude test was a separate test, so I ended up finishing level 9 earlier to get within the average time, thinking level 10 was another game and not the aptitude test itself :rolleyes:

    The graphics themselves are shockingly bad - I've never seen human faces the way those faces were made to look, surely they have the tech to put together some deepfakes.

    From my experience that's a very good sign! A firm did the same to me and I ended up getting an AC invite almost straight after attending the open day 👍
    Thank you! I am so confused as I was rejected for their earlier open day this year ahahha. But I am gonna go with the flow!
