    I have been offered a VS scheme at a firm that has both a spring and summer option. If all goes well and i get offered a TC (fingers crossed) would they offer me this in spring (the week ive opted for) or would they wait until the summer one has completed also?
    Huge achievement, congratulations. Be proud of yourself. Which firm is this for?

    I believe most firms give out offers a week or two after the scheme. So spring most likely!
