Regarding your advice about offer holding, I had another query. I have accepted a vac scheme offer for summer 2025, but also recently did an AC for a direct training contract and will hear soon. I also have a few applications to firms for spring vac schemes which have progressed past the first stage. If I was to get the direct TC offer and accepted, what would the consequences be of still completing the summer vac schemes and a potential spring one? Moreover, is it common for people to accept offers and then reject it later if a better offer comes along?
