A friend of mine said the CMS Sheffield ACs are on the 4th and 5th Feb. He got this fast tracked from the insight programme last year though so no clue about current application timelines.

You legend haha thank you so much for the intel!

I was literally going to reply and say "me an empath sensing you need insights or tips"

I was also wondering if anyone knows how the SJTs are marked when you have to rank from most to least likely. Do you only get a point (if that's how it works) if they are all in the correct order? I actually have no clue how they are assessed.

I don't think the recruiters know either

Does anyone have any insights into ES AC? 🙏 can help with cc and links ac’s

 

[Donna Paulsen]

Praying I hear from Eversheds tomorrow… I don’t think anyone else on here applied to the Cardiff office so I have no idea if they’ve sent AC invites out yet.
