[QUOTE="M1999, post: 40587, member: 3960"] Hi! I really wouldn't take this thing personally. What I have learnt with this experience is that you cannot predict anything. You could write an amazing application (in your eyes) to a firm and not past the first stage, and write a slightly less than amazing (in your eyes) application to a firm and get through. We'll never know what the recruiters are truly looking for at that particular firm on that particular day. The fact you have progressed onto other prestigious firms shows you are an excellent candidate. Maybe it was not your time with SH or maybe you will find another firm you like even more. I wouldn't waste time thinking 'why', it is one firm & clearly other firms have a great interest in you. Plus, if your heart is really set on SH - remember that they recruit a lot of their trainee intake from direct applications so you have until July 2021 for this intake! [/QUOTE]
