Does anyone know if you can add supplementary information for the TW app? I'm guessing it's a PFO anyway but I may as well try to add in my GDL grades now I have them lol

Click 'update profile' then 'edit/view my academic data'

What are some good questions we can ask the interviewers at the end of an AC interview?

Hiya!

I think it's always quite good and insightful to ask the interviewer about their own personal experiences within the firm e.g. how they think the firm has changed since they joined and what direction they think it is or should be heading in.

Hope this helps ☺️

Could someone point me to the threads/messages where people have answered the Q of where a firm should open its next office?Thanks!

Here's one ☺️

Where should we open up our next office?

Hi All, I have an interview coming up with a well renowned international firm who have offices worldwide. I've heard that at this particular firm, there is a high probability that the question in the title will be asked. However, I have absolutely no idea what to say. As mentioned, they...

If you’re referring to answers to interests & activities, etc, you can’t view that. It is recommended to save it before submitting an application. Hope that helps!

Received confirmation but no tests as of yet

Received confirmation but no tests as of yet

Right I haven't received any email confirmation- only the initial invite (which I replied to), if you don't mind me asking did you receive confirmation today? I'm wondering if it's worth calling now?
