DAC Beachcroft VS offer!! I am honestly in disbelief. After a gut wrenching TC rejection from another firm at the final stage back in February, I didn’t know if this would happen for me. But it goes to show not to give up, and that resilience really is part of the process.

Huge congratulations, that is amazing news!! I can totally relate to that - whilst my rejections last cycle definitely stung, it made the offers all the more rewarding when they finally came through!

You should be super proud of yourself, especially given how competitive these schemes are. I hope you take some time to celebrate properly!!

For DAC Beachcroft vs (London) is the final stage a written exercise and is anyone still waiting to hear back post critical thinking test?

I applied for Leeds, so it could be a staggered release of feedback. I wasn’t sent a written assessment in the end, think it’s because they ran out of time

Hi! I have a Squire's vacation scheme coming up and I just wanted some tips on how to prepare for a vacation scheme, and more specifically, how to prepare for an interview at the end of a vacation scheme?
