When did you both apply? I have a place on the CMS Academy (London) this summer and completed an AC at CMS in mid-Jan. I applied in late November and received my WG test invite the next day. I think they are running AC's through till early-mid March though so I wouldn't give up hope yet!
I applied a few days before the deadline but waiting to receive a PFO

If the deadline for a video interview is 6 March 2020(GMT+00:00), does that mean midnight on Thursday 5th or on Friday 6th? Sorry if this is a silly question!

Hey guys, I have an AC with Trowers coming up next week, does anyone know what to expect? I cant even find if they use strengths/competency based Q's. There's a written exercise, group task and short interview.
Any help would be much welcomed :)

Did the VI for Lewis Silkin earlier. One piece of advice, don’t waste time prepping...just dive straight in. Not the sort of questions you can realistically prep for. I spent the day preparing competency examples but they were useless. At least they’ll be useful for others.

They did say in the email that no prep was needed in fairness...
