    The Hunt for a Training Contract: Take Three

    Hello all, Just wanted to share a quick update - I am absolutely delighted to say I have now secured a TC at a firm here in the North West! I start in September and I am extremely excited :) Just goes to show - grades are important but they can only go so far. I completed my LPC in 2017 and...

    PwC Online Testing

    I've completed the career unlocked test but have not had any confirmation it has gone through, my application still says 'under review' from 28 September 2019 (I did the Career Unlocked test early October). Do they send you any kind of confirmation once this is done?

    Work Experience - How far back is it acceptable to go?

    That makes sense, phew :) This is very helpful thank you! I wanted to use experiences in uni/during my LPC as well as they have really helped. I never used them in my applications because I thought they were too old. Thanks!

    Work Experience - How far back is it acceptable to go?

    Hi everyone, Just wondering - how far back is it acceptable to go when discussing work experience, extra curricular etc in application questions. I'm a little worried as I've been told 12- 18 months max. I graduated a few years ago and I've been in full time employment for just over a year and...

    The Hunt for a Training Contract: Take Three

    Hey everyone, I thought maybe this would be a good place to get some initial thoughts down, perhaps ground myself a little as I prepare for what is sure to be quite a whirlwind of a journey. A little bit about me. I graduated from a Russel Group university in 2015 with a 2:1, and to be quite...

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Hi, Thanks for your answer - I think the one I was most worried about was age so glad to hear that. I am less concerned about my university resits since it was two modules in total and I upped my game in my third year. My LPC resits are more than one but were all during Stage 1 so are more...

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Hi Jess, Just wondering what your thoughts would be on this. I'm currently in a position where I feel like it's too late for me to be a viable candidate for a TC and I worry that I am the only person to make such a mess of things! I graduated from a Russell Group uni in 2015, Law degree -...
