Jessica you’re correct. I had the same question and emailed them. They said that the deadline is Saturday 11.59pm (I received my test invite on Wednesday in the morning too @prospectiveswitcher ).
Thanks for clarifying - this is useful, so thank you for sharing this information.

Looking to put in direct TC applications at the moment and was unsure as to where to apply owing to the stage we are at in the recruiting cycle.

Interested in Private Equity and more broadly American commercial firms in London.

Anyone got any recommendations?

Thanks :)

For Bakers direct TC:

Q2 states: Tell us about something - anything - that excites and inspires you. (300 words max)

Must I only talk about ONE thing, or can I speak about 2-3 things which excites and inspires me? Thanks!

slaughters are interviewing until the 17th of feb.
Slaughter and May February interviews are all for the vac scheme. The direct TC interviews start back up in March. There might be exceptions ie if an applicant said they needed to respond to another offer, but I booked my interview at the beginning of December for March, and on the email it said it was only running summer scheme interviews in jan and feb. Just to clear up the slight confusion I’ve seen on this thread ie slaughter and may!

hat does it mean if the HR mailed me asking if I have other offers in January given I had applied for a direct TC?

But is Slaughter calling direct TC applicants for an interview even if it is scheduled in March?? Because I am a direct TC applicant and the HR mailed me asking if I have other offers but still hasn’t scheduled any interview.
