Hi

I applied for CC Middle East training contract, and my application was updated on the 17th December but still did not receive any response. I read the forums and saw some people got invited to AC at CC, so I was just wondering if I should email the graduate recruitment to enquire before it's too late since their ACs take place this month, or should I wait?

Thank you!

I emailed the Graduate Recruitment Team and they told me they would get back to me "in the New Year" (Still haven't heard back). Apparently the Middle East TC is reviewed separately from the London TC.
