Out of curiosity, how many stages are there to the NRF process? Reading this thread it seems like
1. Application
2. WG / Arctic Shores
3. Telephone Interview
4. AC? or is there more?
Seems like a lot - I remember someone telling me a few years back NRF was one of the firms that didn't even do a WG test - just an interview.

    I think after the telephone interview it’s only the online AC. I guess they added stages due to the high number of applications.

    I need a quick advice please.
    I got my TI invitation right now (Very surprising) and the time slot given to choose was between tomorrow and Wednesday morning during the office working hours. I have a full time job and this a very short notice to prepare and to ask for a permission from work.
    What can I do ?
    Thanks.

    I was invited a few days ago and was told they have to complete the interviews (of this batch) by Friday. They did ask me if there were alternative times before Friday which would work. Just email them asking for alternative availability this week, without mentioning all this work leave stuff.
