    2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion

    So I chose one that I do know personally but not too well (involved 5ish years ago). That way if they bring it up at interview, I know the ins and out and won’t be too put off by questions but can also say that I’m no longer directly linked to them. Tbh I don’t think it matters as long as you...

    Thanks for this @Jessica Booker, I really appreciate the insight. Fo you have any suggestions on how to get around the extra-curriculars issue? I do work part-time and run my own business, so any extra time is in the gym or 🍷 😂 It’s just difficult to know what to mention/highlight. Is it about...

    I think they’ve *just started sending stuff back so I would try not to worry. Just keep thinking it’s not a rejection until it’s actually a rejection - keeping my fingers crossed for you :)
