General Discussion Thread 2020-21
I posted here a few weeks ago about feeling that I had the worst interview I had ever had, at the end of a vac scheme. Was very shocked to have been offered a TC from it, goes to show that one can never really know how an interview has gone and don't give up hope!! As a side note, from getting...- 003

Having spoken to grad rec, the scheme doesn't exempt applicants from taking the test. You still have to meet the benchmark to be guaranteed an interview.- 003

Re explaining not converting a VS to a TC above, is it less of an issue if it is just one type of firm rather than two? The firm is technically US but more international. I recently finished a VS and it had a new TC interview added at the end (purely case study based). No one has heard an...- 003

Just an update, thanks to everyone for your advice. I heard back from someone else at GR and was sent instructions to clear my internet cache. Then when I clicked the original link I was able to carry on the test where I left it. Not sure if it was just a misunderstanding on my part on the call...- 003

Thanks, I did ask when I first spoke if they could resend it, and the reply was there was nothing they can do. I'm a bit wary of phoning and getting the same person again, would you still call after already asking on the call, and having no reply to the original email and the email after the...- 003

Thanks, no they didn't say why they just said, unfortunately, there is nothing they can do. And asked me to send the screenshot again so they can pass it to IT to flag it for future issues (or something along those lines). I was shocked so I just said thanks I'll email it. I've asked in the...- 003

Thank you, I called and unfortunately, they can not resend it. Gutted really after spending so long on the application, and I think it means I can't apply for a year too now.- 003

Thank you Jess. I haven't heard back from grad rec and tomorrow is the last working day for them to send it before the deadline on Sunday. Do you think it would be ok to call them if I haven't received it by tomorrow morning?- 003

My SJT crashed halfway through earlier and would not let me submit. The email it was sent with says if this happens 'please contact .' and it's a no-reply email. Has anyone had any experience of this? I've emailed grad rec with a screenshot and I'm waiting to hear back. Would I be allowed to...- 003

Received a VS interview invite from Reed Smith for next week. Because of the added earlier assessment stage, it will just be a 20-minute strengths-based interview. Never done one before, does anyone have any advice, please? Also, they're different from other firms that I applied to, in that...- 003
