Hogan Lovells Stage 2 Invite. Applied 23 Nov; first stage 7 Dec; feedback 8 Dec; second stage invite 20 mins ago.
Got 'Personal Responsibility' and 'Ambition' for strengths and 'Adaptable' for area of development.
Any insight would be appreciated, can share Latham VI.
For those looking for Latham Part 2 insights: Here is what I can say
Q1 (practice): 'assessed but more scored.'
Q2 and Q3: Expect VARYING recording times.
WG is normal difficulty around 30 questions in total.
Don't want to say more cuz it'll take away the whole point of VIs.
Good luck everyone!
I'm also seeking stage 2 insights. However, if this helps, their VI last year was something in the lines of 'tell us about a time where your personal character was challenged' and if I remember correctly, 2 mins to record and a reasonable amount of time to respond (more than 30 secs)...
I don't think you should expect PFO at all. DLA reviews your APPLICATION FIRST and then decides whether they want to give you WG. So if you scored higher than their WG benchmark, you should expect an interview. Just a matter of time. How well do you think you did on the WG?
