I went to the Status website of their domain host: https://status.kenexa.com/

It says here that the EU talent portal will be unavailable to 23:00 EST (past the deadline) due to scheduled maintenance. Feeling a bit grim about this; does anyone know how we could still submit our application?

Having the same issue. Feeling like it’s v unlikely they will extend. Who knows. Just got to hope they may reopen for March 26. If not will need to use my answers for the winter vac
hey - a brand ambassador from A&O in the SEO London Corporate Law group chat confirmed that they will extend until tmr. They will probably circulate a notice tomorrow, don't give up hope!
