Ngl the recruitment at that firm is really putting me off applying cause wdym i have to write an entire cover letter for an open day (which takes place after you’ve already offered vacation scheme places!!!) and you don’t even respect me enough to send a rejection
Ofc they have right answers they are math problems 😭
If your calculations don’t match the options, try to make sure you are reading the question and interpreting the data correctly
Realistically, it depends on the firm. Firms that have an automatic SPAG check will probably reject you. However, if the sentence is grammatically correct without the "a," you'd probably be fine. Some firms dont do a spag check at all!
Hi Katherine,
Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions today!
I was just wondering whether you could provide any insight into the situational judgement test, such as what will be assessed and whether there is a benchmark.
Thank you!
I imagine that in cases where it’s SJT + VI, the VI carries more weight in determining the outcome of an application (unless the SJT scores are quite low, which these are not)
Is the Skadden online open day automatic? There were no additional questions and they said invites would be sent on the 18th, just need to know so I can plan my week! Thank you
