Hi Jessica, is it correct that the video interview must be submitted by deadline (today)?

No - invites for the video interview haven’t even gone out!

Congrats to those who got an AC invite from Reed Smith! I was wondering did you also receive the holding email earlier as well?

so sorry was this post app or post VI?

Post blended assessment

Congratulations!! Could I ask what your sjt scores and pillars were like?

I got 6,7,9,9 but my applied verbal intellect was the lowest section of the bar and my applied numerical intellect was the middle section. Honestly I would say to defo not lose hope because generally my report was so random!

Hey, did you get an invite?

 

[saj2002]

It needs to be something that has been difficult/outside of your comfort zone but something you have learnt and grown from. It doesn’t need to come from work or your studies, it can come from life more generally.

Although some people do use health related matters to highlight challenges, you have to show the growth/learning from them. Sometimes it doesn’t work when it’s a personal matter like that as the circumstances just no longer exist (eg you get treated/recover), when you really need to show the development in yourself, not just the ability to deal with the challenge in the moment.

Thank you Jessica!!

Has anyone who applied to W&C Summer Vac on the deadline heard back?

 

[Julia Wyporkiewicz]

Hello,

I was just wondering, how long did it take for W&C to get back to you guys after VI?
I did mine a few weeks ago and was just wondering if I should expect a PFO if they didn’t get back to me

Thank you so much!
