Anyone received VI invite from pwc? I saw on their website the VI deadline is next Friday. Should I just assume a PFO

Anyone heard from Birketts? It has passed the 48 hour mark they said they would aim to let us know by so would be interesting to hear if anyone has heard anything.

Nope, and its stressing me out. I have looked and the deadline was 31st Jan last year also, and they got back to everyone on the 4th Feb (without mentioning a 48hour period)

Well to be honest I am expecting nothing from firms I applied and did tests before January and had their deadlines around the same time.
Sometimes you just to move on for the sake of your mental health, so I am only waiting to hear from 3 firms.

spring! i submitted it a day before deadline (14th)

Just out of curiosity, but has a firm ever accidentally called the wrong candidate to offer them a vac scheme/TC? I don't even want to begin imagining how soul crushing that would be

spring! i submitted it a day before deadline (14th)

Thanks for clarifying!

Hello! Does anyone have any advice or tips on how to prep for the Simmons & Simmons AC? This is my first virtual AC so I was also wondering whether you see / interact with any of the other applicants?
