Has anyone who applied for the spring scheme not heard back either way?

If it helps, I applied last year for the Spring Vac Scheme on 25 November and received the Assessment Centre invite on 31st January, with the AC being on 13th February. While some things might have changed from last year, there is no need to panic as it takes them a long time to review all of the applications

Sorry this is a bit random but I applied for one of HSF's open days back in November which I was successful for but I got an email just now saying that my passed the benchmark for the open day and my application is now being reviewed. There wasn't a test for the open day and I completed the test for the vacation scheme and got the 'passed benchmark' email a couple of weeks ago. I'm a bit concerned something went wrong with my apps, did anyone else get this?

It is possible this is a glitch, are you able to check the portal?

I got this too! I already got rejected for the spring scheme so I assume its a glitch.

Was it for the innovative open day?

I just checked and it now says my open day application is also under review. I think there might have been a glitch with my account because when I signed in they made me reset my password. Do you think it's worth emailing the Graduate Recruitment Team about it or should it be fine?

Yes! Okay, yeah it probably was a glitch

I got an email saying I passed the test on 07/12 but haven't heard anything from HSF since for Spring.

My application status says: Status: Under Review - 04-Dec-2020

I haven’t heard back yet either. I applied on the 4th of December and received confirmation that I’d passed the benchmark on the 14th.

Also applied on the 4th and had the E-Mail on the 7th!

 

[Numerius Negidius]

Did anyone else randomly get an email from HSF about 'passing the benchmark' for an open day which has already happened?

 

[Zaynah]
