I received an email last week to say that I’ve met the benchmark and app now under review but nothing since then

when filling in the work experience section, do people add their uni stuff like treasurer for tennis club etc?

Hello!

It's up to you, but I always used to include my committee positions in university societies in my work experience section! As long as you can discuss your role, main responsibilities, and the transferable skills that it taught, I'd say its a great addition to the section!

I too have received a NRF VI invite. Can anyone give advice or pointers for what kind of questions come up?

Has anyone done the A&O video online assessment part? I just wondered what the process is like - i.e. if you get given X seconds to prepare for the video and one attempt. Thanks!

One attempt to record but unlimited planning time - personally really enjoyed the process over and above CappFin/Arctic

has anyone got a rejection from NRF? I’m assuming those with 3/4 for most of the sections will have a VI?

I am waiting.. haven't gotten a rejection but I scored 4332, I assume/ hope that the benchmark must be 12/16 or smth

 

[GiveMeTC2026]

no

Was thinking that but thank you for confirming it. Will just target their competitors (Deoitte).

Weil have introduced a amberjack test with VI questions. As confirmed by graduate recruitment at the Legal Cheek law fair today
