I've gotten rejected from loads of firms post-app. My thinking is that some is likely to do with my grades and some firms are stricter than others but you just need one yes
Hey @Abbie Whitlock
I’ve messaged you privately about a doubt - I would be very grateful if you could look at it when you have some time
Thank you!

Ik this has been answered before but I can't find it - does anyone have any tips on how to do better on the applied verbal/numerical for amberjack? My scores are all over the place - sometimes v good and sometimes they're abysmal, would really appreciate some guidance
applied verbal and numerical are both often quite verbal - they tend to try to make it ambiguous for the numerical and include unnecessary information.
for applied verbal you're not providing legal advice, so the most conservative answer isn't usually right (getting things wrong catastrophically just costs you one mark, no big deal) - you do need to read carefully and find the answer that best fits.
FWIW it's a standard Amberjack, including verbal & numerical questions, SJT, plus VI at the end.
Ramadhan Mubarak to everyone who’s fasting for the next month! I think most people will be starting tomorrow but some on Thursday? 😀
Does anyone know if trainees can be laid off?
Assuming if you breach your contract / privilege you can be, all I've heard of is trainees being told they won't be kept on after their contract finishes - in the specific example I'm talking about the trainee was told maybe 3 months in advance and basically gave up ie WFH a lot and when they did come into the office they declined work etc*
* just an edit: from what I remember the trainee wasn't kept on because they didn't have a 'passion' for the main sectors the firm offered
never ever choose the "i am a failure at this task" option.
show initiative where appropriate (e.g., do work while the partner is out, but don't randomly telephone the client when it's not your role)
