[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 1220, member: 1"] Hi Revan, I just asked a former grad recruiter (at an MC firm) about this. She said the following: "Recruited enough people from last minute applications to know it’s not a problem. The reason they are a waste of time is that it’s highly likely that if you are doing them last minute, you are rushing the application. Your research probably isn’t as thorough, you haven’t got time for someone else to check your application, or for you to triple check for errors. This means that generally standards of applications near the deadline are awful (collectively) because people rush to get them in, rather than putting in a considered application." [/QUOTE]
