    I remember seeing somewhere that it does not, but it wasn't on a PH website or anything, it was on some sort of forum so take with a pinch of salt

    Love you Chris but “the UK is classist and this is not good” isn’t a controversial take at all lmao

    Not sure how the US D.E.I. situation affects that, the issues you’re mentioning about VIs exist regardless of that

    Ugh I just wish firms were transparent with their timelines… Since I always expect the worst, I’m guessing if we don’t hear back by the end of today it will be PFOs on Monday

    Its probably important to not do badly in it, but saw some people with high scores get rejected the other day so it isn’t everything

    At this point I’m guessing they sent out invites yesterday and today and will send other PFOs tomorrow 🥲

    I think in the UK it’s more something like “if X has A*AA from a state school and has been working part time during school to support their family, they might be more talented than Y, who got the same grades at an elite private school while doing nothing else.” At least for graduate entry jobs...

    In a (very small) nutshell, the US has DEI quotas to fill, whereas the UK simply takes candidates’ background into consideration during the hiring process. The former is illegal in the UK bc it is a form of discrimination Pls correct me if I’m wrong, this is just my understanding :)
