Yeah, they introduced it this year unfortunately. I think they previously only used for the Middle East programmes.
For A&O is it tests to start with and then VI questions at the end or is it mixed throughout? What kind of questions are presented I.e. behavioura, situational or why do you want to work here/be a trainee etc.
Planning on doing it today.

Hi i did my bank of england test last friday but heard nothing back since then
Oh wow well done! I still haven’t heard from them so I am assuming I didn’t get through.
when did you apply for it as it took me 9 days to get a test invite
it’s coming up to a month now so definitely a PFO!🤣when did you apply for it as it took me 9 days to get a test invite
No, as confirmed by the grad recruitment team during their Open Day.
Last year they took a month to reject me. Changed my motivational reasons for applying this year and made it to testing! IF you are unsuccessful this year try again for next year (unless you get a TC elsewhere lol).
If you started your Fieldfisher application the day it came out like I did (1st November), they’ve changed the questions 🤣🤣🤣
I applied last night! Hoping they get through applications fast
Hello I applied but I don't know unfortunately, do you think its worth emailing them or just waiting it out?
Slaughter PFO post interview. Feeling absolutely devastated. Really struggled with the article discussion. Any tips to improve on this area is very much appreciated 🥲 want to improve.
hey, well done for even getting to that interview, slaughters' interview is notoriously difficult so don't beat yourself up! some tips I'd say that ive gotten as feedback would be that you have to be clear in articulation
providing a concise summary and the key points and taking a stance can be tricky but what they look for is cohesiveness and clarity in thoughts communicated! also when they challenge you on your points, you have to be flexible in incorporating their thoughts into your ideas but also not be easily swayed (unless you're completely wrong and want to acknowledge that with their new added info, you get the gist!)
I hope those tips help <33
Still haven't heard anything from Hogan Lovells following my application for direct TC (deadline 31st July). Should I assume that my application has been rejected? Does anyone know the contact email for grad rec to discuss it with them? I can't seem to find it.
