Alright, thank you very much!!I didn’t apply but my friend gave the VI. I can confirm that he said it was not one of the easy VIs it’s competency/strength based (those ques were still easy/basic) he said that the firm based motivational ques were hard so I think deep knowledge of firm will be more helpful.
I don’t remember if he mentioned anything about commercial awareness tbh
More prep is always beneficial
Again, I’m not too sure as I myself didn’t give the VI but hope this helps. Best of luck!
Sorry as this reply is probably too late, but I only just saw this. I believe Weil used to do a direct TC but but owing to the fact they basically filled most places each year from the VS, they decided to stop with the direct TC - I don't know what year they stopped though, this may be first year they've changed it. I think a webinar I attended with Weil early careers mentioned this being the case now. Equally, when I applied to VS I didn't see any additional application options for a TC on application portal, so I would assume it just isn't happening... but if anyone knows any different please feel free to correct me!
Someone got a VI today, so I think they’ll follow last year’s format and AC invites will come after the Christmas break. Especially as they’re non rolling, I think they’re waiting to receive all VIs??Fingers crossed for good news 🤞
Looks like historically most of their trainees comes from the VS but that they purposely keep a direct TC route open for those who cannot apply for VS:
