I think it is probably worth you doing the VI, especially if there is no clashing summer scheme, as that adds a layer of safety in case you don't get the TC offer. But this does depend on when your VI deadline is and when you expect to hear back from TC interview and how confident you are about...- 202023r

Largely competency based, would recommend preparing basic competencies such as leadership, teamworking, organisational, etc. Also have multiple examples for a competency as you may use one example for another competency, this will show you have a range of experience and are well rounded. Also...- 202023r
