It is the 8th, the website must be a mistake but on their application description when you click 'apply now it says the closing date is the 8th so don't worry there's still time!

On their website it says the 8th too! Under when can you apply! So this was what I was going with and I need that time ahha

I applied for the direct TC in July - VI in December - then got invited to the telephone interview mid Jan - did that about a week ago. So they are getting back to people slowly. In my telephone interview they did say they had more to do and that I wouldn't hear back for at least a few weeks
Do you remember how long you get to prepare each answer for the W&C video interview? :)
