[QUOTE="Harty, post: 129277, member: 27143"] Hi all Received an AC invite for the 2Bird Spring Vac Scheme. The email says "The virtual assessment centre comprises of a timed written exercise, live interview, as well as non-assessed Q&A time with our current trainee solicitors. Prior to the assessment centre, you'll be sent a preparation guide to help prepare you for this stage of the recruitment process." My questions are 1) Should I expect a repeat of the WG? Know that they used to do it (unique to them, I believe). The above wording does not indicate I will have to repeat it, but they may just want to hide it. My WG track record is inconsistent so I will practice if I must but don't want to waste time practicing if I need not. Got any sources who can verify one way or another? 2) Was also thinking to ask for more details (and straight up asking if we must retake the WG), but not sure if this is a smart idea at this stage given they state they will be sending a guide. Could it bite me? Don't see any harm in asking when's the guide coming, but if I email, I may as well get right to the point? 3) Any other advice would be much appreciated - especially from 2022 AC participants. 4) Does anyone know if they made any offers already? Don't believe they have a Winter scheme but noticed a recent review on another site and this put me in questioning mode. Many thanks, [/QUOTE]
