2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion

[S87]

Definitely!

Almost everything has been brought online from education to business meetings to patient consolations. With such an increased reliance on online software systems and data storage, cyber-security is arguably a very significant area of concern right now.

If using this as a commercial story, I would narrow the issue to perhaps a specific company or a specific industry, that way you can have a more tailored discussion as on its own cyber-security is quite a broad topic.

Thank you so much!

Does your portal getting refreshed have any meaning other than they've seen it? Mine was refreshed on the 2nd of feb.

I dunno, I think so? Not 100%, hence the q ahah

I don't mean to complain but I now have five ACs in the next 2 weeks.... if anyone has any tips on how I can strategically prepare please please help me hahahahah

Oh really? Do you remember when you applied last year?
Hopefully they’re just going through all the apps and we’ll hear back soon!

I applied around 1-2 weeks before the deadline then too! I hope so too

V&E AC!! does anyone know if this is the final round? Can't find any information on the process!

V&E invite to interview

 

[MzM]

This process really takes you on a rollercoaster, doesn’t it? 3 rejections this week, not feeling great, then out of nowhere pops an AC invite, and the prep process starts again!

Guys when you booked your slot for V&E and it asked you about practice group preference and dietary requirements did you put anything?

Lol imagine if they sent us food for our video conference interview

 

[conniekatherine]

Does anyone actually know the dates of the V&E vac scheme? Can’t seem to find it!

Lol imagine if they sent us food for our video conference interview

To be fair, this year I attended a virtual open day and the firm gave us access to the corporate deliveroo account. Needless to say I took full advantage....
