Sorry to hear they’re really difficult to be fair I’ve done a couple and still struggle I’m sure we’ll get there eventually!
I’m still waiting too (London)Anyone heard anything who applied to London or Birmingham office?
Wait actually, I'm wrong! I am on the reservation list! I didn't even know they did that!
I'm just wondering if the reservation email is something they have sent to most? Damn I really liked DWF.
Just received the same for the London office!
....how strange, I haven't heard of anything like this before?? @Jaysen have you come across firms that state "if a space becomes available (if an applicant withdraws) we will be in touch to offer you a place on our assessment centre"?? Not sure what to make of this?
The rejection email is different to a reserve position. People do also drop out and then they contact people on the reserve list.
