Hi,
I wonder if someone could help. I’ve done a cover letter for a firm which needs to be copied/pasted onto the application form and not attached as a pdf.
In this instance, do we include dates/addresses so it looks like a letter?

The instructions say “address it to graduate recruitment” which I assume just means “Dear Grad R”…
There is a word limit so just wanted to clarify…

Hi, I just received a wg test invite from Hogan Lovells. Do they send it to everyone? Also, does anyone know if we will be able to see our results afterwards?
I'm on their BaSE Silver Scheme which gives me a place on their first year insight scheme. I didn't receive the results of my Watson Glaser or even confirmation I'd passed until I received my offer. I also only received an invite 11-12 days after my application was submitted so I don't think they're sent to everyone.

I don't know if this will be the same for you, but I hope this helps. Good luck!

hey, i was accepted to their silver programme and they sent the wg invite after 11 days, if that helps! and you can find out your percentile score if you email them! i did and was told that their wg pass score was the 18th percentile

Thanks. Sorry if it’s a stupid question but does “18th percentile” mean you have to do better than 82% of applicants? As in top 18th percentile?
