Hi Chris Sure 1. Yes - we have four rounds to get to the vac scheme, so we don't feel any further formal assessment is needed. 2. On the basis of their work product and approach to the vacation scheme, taking into account their academic stage. 3. No - it is the vac scheme only. thanks Gemma- WillkieGemma

Hi Emma I would imagine decision making is the same in most firms - interviewers will have a marking sheet that they will complete independently of each other, and then they will discuss with the grad rec team. Yes, there is no problem with reapplying but there is no guarantee of reaching the...- WillkieGemma
