Those were disgustingly, sweaty tests. I'm really not fond of "assessments" where I guess they're designed for you to not be able to finish them- FM302989

I would go for it. I've got in touch with trainees who have been more than helpful because they too have gone for this horrendous process before. Some of them have even become my friends What I would say is make sure you have specific questions to ask and stuff you genuinely want to know...- FM302989

Slow your breathing; Avoid overthinking; Mindset - be confident. You got to this stage for a reason, now finish off your hard work! If you're confident and maintain a calm mindset, you can tackle any challenges or random questions thrown your way.- FM302989
