I am planning to apply to NRF again for SVS, as I was rejected for WVS post VI. Is it ok to use the same cover letter again or should it be changed? Not much has changed in terms of my motivations since I last applied!

I thought it was ok! I think lol. Standard scenario based questions, the slider thing to rank options, a section on numerical questions and then their own version of WG. I haven’t heard back- completed it last Sunday

Also just a word of advice for all those who will be receiving the Mishcon interview- keep more than the recommended 30-45 minutes aside. Took me over 2 hours! Questions are tailored to your own personal experiences so just make sure you know your employment history/extra curricular activities...
