    That's so odd...are you sure that's what you saw? I have yet to see anyone even post about the second stage of their application process for the summer placement scheme.

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Really worried about my performance on the Hill Dickinson Amberjack OA...I scored decently well for Grit and Applied Intellect (7/9 for both) but for Creative Force and Digital Mindset I seemed to have performed quite terribly (4/9 for both). Should I be expecting a PFO? Not sure if this helps...

    That's what I was thinking! Someone on here said they knew all the ACs had taken place but with PFOs going out to some but not all I feel like there may be a glimmer of hope! I really hope we find out soon!
