Maybe they do it because they need a reserve list as people always drop out, but I just don't find it very fair on people
Glad to see they are sending out PFO’s and VI’s at the same time! Well done. What kind of deadline have they given for the VI?
Anyone else still not heard from WBD?
Nice one! I'm waiting on PLS in London. Fingers crossed because I got to AC last year but couldn't attend! So hoping I'll be able to this time round!Thank you! This was PLS in Birmingham

'The next step is for you to complete our online pre-recorded video interview; we will use the video interview, along with your application form and Pymetrics results, to help us to select who we progress to the assessment day.
The assessment days will take place between 5th of May and 9th June 2021.
You will be invited to the assessment day based on your first choice office location. Reasonable travel and accommodation costs will be covered.'
Interesting as seems like they are planning AC in person from that email?

I wouldn't stress, will just be based on their availability.
I'm sure if you were good enough to make it through last time this year will be no different! Best of luck
Thank you, have emailed asking the dates as I already have vac schemes confirmed so don't want to waste their time!

I don’t think I’ve ever done an interview where I walked out thinking “Yes I’ve got this my answers were perfect.” In fact I always walk out thinking it went terrible. Point being, you are your own harshest critic when it comes to this stuff. One of the most tragic ACs I ever did was when a) I didn’t finish the case study and b) a 30 minute presentation and interview time lasted only 15 minutes and the partners left saying “Thanks, someone will come and collect you” like it was so bad they wanted me gone immediately haha. Still got the VS and the TC after. Try your best to distract yourself from overthinking it, don’t count yourself out just yet.
Hi Mina,Found out I'm through to the written assessment stage for Stephenson Harwood! Can't believe it!! If anyone has any advice would be so appreciated
How did you find the written assessment, if you have some advice as to what to expect and/or how to prepare, I would really appreciate it! Thank you!
