    2020-21 Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion

    Oh amazing! For some reason i thought their window closed soon - do you think its advisable to wait until final results (so I'm less of a unknown entity as an applicant) or apply now pre finals to get my foot in the door?

    Thats what i thought! I have a pretty good one from some work I've done on a uni society but I am conscious that maybe ill come off a bit plastic-y and disingenuous lol, really hard to strike the balance between showing your personality and being employable hehe

    For a question that asks about your greatest non-academic achievement in the last 2 years, would it be advisable to use the fact as an international student I've not been able to go home for over a year and have lived on my own through the lockdowns? or is that not meaty enough?

    2020-21 Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion

    No I haven't heard! I was just wondering as some firms take into account the strength of your application and it can outweigh a mediocre WG but seems like you are saying that isn't the case :)

    2020-21 Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion

    I haven't heard yet - I applied around the same time as @Asil Ahmad I think, 23rd Feb so maybe it is odd that they have sent a random outcome but not to anyone else?
