I received a VS offer too!
Does anyone know roughly what percentage of VS people are offered a TC? I can see they say there are 60 work placements and 45 training contracts each year but they also interview some people directly for TCs rather than work placements so I am wondering what my chances are...

Hi everyone! I've made a Whatsapp chat for the IM Birmingham summer placement. If anyone wants to join, please direct message me and I'll send you the link:) I thought it'd be nice for us all to connect before our placement!

They have new questions. Comoleted the VI this and last year.

I did the interview today! I was so nervous but honestly think I did okay made sure to not get cut off mid sentence


Also does anyone know if we will hear back after the deadlines for the applications or before the deadline? I know the AC is only after the deadline.

a lil confused - the application portal for IM isn't really asking me to answer any questions? literally just personal info then straight to the competency Qs? did I miss something?

Goodluck!

Can you please let me know what kind of questions they ask? I'm so scared because I get extremely nervous on video interviews 😭
Motivations and strengths questions :) No commercial awareness.

I can completely understand this and find VIs scary too. But just make sure to practice on your webcam and I'm sure you'll do better than you expect. Good luck!
