For a written task, if there is a word count between 500 and 1500, will I still be judged for how much I write within that count? Secondly, if I say the right things but because of nerves, my enthusiasm wasn't showing enough as it should've been in the presentation, will I also be marked down...- bangarangbass39

Stupid question but, how do people know what solution would work for a specific commercial challenge? Asking this with regard to commercial case studies. I know examples could help with this, but 1) real life examples contain intricacies, which upon further examination might show the example...- bangarangbass39

This is what I thought. But a recent AC I did, only one other person wore a tie - and they looked great. Everyone else was button down. All of my previous ACs I’ve always been the one guy wearing a tie😭I’m scared of being that guy- bangarangbass39
