    Just application except one telephone interview with Akin. And that’s with 3 mentors. Plan B I think

    I think (but don’t know) that’s what let me down. I felt the TI went well but I also believed my commercial answer was ok. Trouble is, it’s decided by a partner in that area and anonymised.

    Thank you 🙏 I applied 7/11 so a little while ago and had expected bad news. Delighted I was wrong! Appreciate still a long way to go but it’s certainly given me a boost if nothing else :)

    Ah yes you’re quite right! Losing track. Not a good sign for me in that case though 😥
