Hey! Has anyone heard back from HL in relation to BaSE Gold?
Same
I don't even know what didn't work. Thought I had a good interviewNope, it is not necessary you have to show that you are interested in and understand the topic.
Some firms questions will explicitly ask for this, in which case yes. If it's not prompted by the question, I'd actually avoid it as then you're not really answering the question at hand in part of your answer.
This said, I would generally tend to select a business story that is relevant to the firm to show that your interests align with theirs but not everyone will agree on that point and it depends on the firm.
Apologies if this seems like a silly question but for the question
"Describe your greatest non-academic achievement of the last two years and why this achievement is important to you."
is it best to answer it in a STAR structure or would you just write about what the achievement is/entailed in one paragraph and then another separate point for why it's important?

NRF AC! Any advice would be very appreciated!!
Spring (attention to detail/social adaptability/ and something else I forgot) But got the same result for last cycle and passed in the previous so I was quite surprised!
Anyone else still waiting post-VI for Simmons Winter?
Also anyone else who applied for Bird & Bird Spring and haven't heard back post-WG?

Simmons got a PFO..last night
I completely understand that feeling, the main thing to remember is that it is not about how good you are. You could literally be the absolute best version of yourself and not get it purely because it isn't about you, it's about who you are up against. You can't control who the other applicants are so focus on being the best version of yourself.
Try not to worry about things that are outside of your control. You control yourself, so be the best self that you can. Much easier said than done of course. We cant help but evaluate every little thing that we said, but not getting through doesn't mean that you aren't good enough, if that was the case then they wouldn't have wanted to meet you in the first place. It all builds resilience and just know that you are not alone in your thoughts, who knows what GR are actually looking for! Be your best self and you'll end up where you are meant to be, when you are meant to be there.
The more PFOs I get the more I appreciate the bonding of this forum and how supportive people are towards one another - which is very incredible given how cutthroat the competition is - keep up the good work people!
Hey guys, I have failed my NRF telephone interview and absolutely don't know the reasons for the same. I did so well (I feel), knew ALL questions, had prepared very well and gave logical, composed answers. Does anyone have any advice on what to make of this? And how to get grad to provide a feedback (if at all there is precedent for this)? Thanks
