    I need some advice from you guys - do you think it's a good idea to have my notes open in a Word document during a virtual assessment centre? This would include things like situations for standard competency questions or points about why I'm interested in the firm. On one hand, I believe it...

    Absolutely 😭 I've started to wonder if my Italian accent might be a factor in not progressing past the interview stage, despite feeling like I've given the right answers. When speaking, I often fear that I'm not clear enough or that I might make grammatical mistakes because I’m too nervous...

    If it helps you definitely can, I’ve seen candidates bring them in :) And yes, you’re definitely allowed to take notes for the case study interview during your prep time - you then go into the interview with your notes and it’s advisable that you take good notes so you can present or work...

    Has anyone completed a written exercise as part of a virtual assessment centre? I'm interested in understanding how it's conducted. Do they expect you to work on it by yourself, or do they supervise you through a platform like Teams? I know it depends but please share your insights with me🥹
