[QUOTE="AR3, post: 60950, member: 10392"] Hi everyone! I applied for a vacation scheme and was unsuccessful in getting through to the VI stage, but the grad recruitment team mentioned that they were impressed with my application, so recommended I consider making an application for their direct TC, as these applications do not close for a little while now. It's the same application question for the TC app, so I was wondering if anyone would perhaps be able to read through my previous VS answer and offer any tips on where I might be going wrong, or where I could improve. I'm really hoping to improve my application, as this is effectively a second chance, and I can appreciate I would normally have to wait until the next cycle to try again! Thank you in advance :) [/QUOTE]
