    Hi everyone,

    I recently received an interview to a firm for a summer VS. Unfortunately, the interview period is right in the middle of my exam week in early Jan. I attended an open day at the firm, and they mentioned that they were pretty flexible in changing the dates and providing a later interview in late Jan/early Feb if need be, all you had to do was email them to make the request. I would definitely prefer to have a later interview, however, I am unsure if I should email and ask to change because I am worried it will be a bad look on my part as exams are not really extenuating circumstances. I am absolutely prepared to do the interview in my exam week during the times they have provided, but just wanted to ask you all if anyone has been in a similar situation before?

    This is not an issue at all - definitely ask. Exams are probably one of the most legislate excuses to ask for a different date.
