    They emailed on Monday saying they are screening applications and will shortly invite people to the next stage which is the online strengths based assessment. So I’m meaning if anyone has heard back about the next stage.
    Ahh my bad, I thought you were referring to those that had completed the placement application and online tests.

    Am I correct in saying that I can apply for a direct TC before the usual June deadline, and still apply for a vacation scheme at the same firm when the open in September?
    It depends on the individual firm’s policy. Some firms will say you can’t reapply at all, others will say that you need to wait 6-12 months before reapplying. For many firms it will be deemed a new application cycle though, and so you could reapply.

    How do people prepare for a video interview if you have no clue how long you get to answer each question, because you can’t time yourself as a way to practice?

    I always struggle with the timing and either run out of time, or find myself with too much time left…

    Does anyone know if Goodwin's intake is mostly from vacation scheme or direct TC? And would it be worth applying for direct TC or do I just wait for the new application cycle and apply for the vac scheme?

    I think they specifically leave a few places for direct TC, as they know that not everyone can make a VS and they don't want to lose a large potential pool of applicants because of that!
