    Has anyone done the Howard Kennedy VI before? Any tips would be really really great - I am not sure what to expect! :)

    If you did the Howard Kennedy Watson Glaser, did you get a confirmation email to say you’d completed it? I got nothing but an email when I started the test asking me to complete the test! :/

    Hey all - does anyone know when we should hear back from Howard Kennedy after completing the Watson Glaser test? Is there a video interview stage next, before the assessment centres? I can see on here last year people did VI’s but I can’t see that on the HK website. Thanks :)

    Has anyone completed an application for Howard Kennedy 2025 TC? I am currently on the 'work history/education' section. Are there additional questions after this section i.e., why the firm etc? and are you able to go back and amend the previous section if you move onto the next one? Another firm...
