Hi! I got a rejection for the summer scheme last Wednesday so they have started sending them - hopefully, like everyone else has said, no news is good news for you!

Ah sorry to hear that! Hope you're coping okay :) I applied on the deadline day though so not holding out too much hope haha

    Sorry to hear! Hope you're feeling okay about it, rejections are never great! HSF knocked me back post-AC and it was definitely the rejection I took hardest.
    It actually didn't even upset me that much because I was asking to be considered for a direct TC when they normally only hire through their vac scheme, so I knew I'd have to be a big stand-out candidate for them to give me a chance; plus, I have an AC for my top-choice firm tomorrow morning so that lessens the blow :p

    Best of luck with the AC tomorrow! Sure you'll crush it. Fingers crossed for you!
