It was healthcare Manchester office. Yeah I think cause the London schemes later they hear later as well

Yeah, I applied to London Healthcare and haven’t heard a thing! I even emailed grad rec but no reply. They must be super busy I guess no news is better than bad news!

Thanks! Sounds really similar to last year then which is a relief. Mine is on Thursday, best of luck with yours 😊

Thank you!! I’ll keep you updated 🤞

Had my interview just now, only spoke 8 minutes so I feel it was too short but we'll see. They said Grad recruitment would be in contact the week commencing 8th March to tell us what the next step is. Cause of how late it is. I think the next step is the insight scheme.

How did other people find it?

Hey! If you don't mind that would be really helpful! I have an interview on Thursday.

That is true I suppose, thank you! I have another interview next week so hoping that experiencing this interview first will help.

I applied for Manchester Health stream and was told we would hear back by the 8th March

Thank you!! I’ll keep you updated 🤞

Hey, Im sure you did well and you probably went into detail regarding the questions which I'm sure they'll appreciate! Could you give any pointers as to the type of questions to expect? (eg: is it along the lines of what was said above or were you surprised by any questions?)

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thank you! I think the vibe just caught me off guard haha

Yes, as above. Mainly about the firm, your sector, your role, and any legal challenges etc (I did the business sector for reference)! I did prepare 3 competencies and strength based stuff but none of that was asked. It was very quick - so I think they are just trying to get through them all with using the 3 questions.

good luck hope yours goes well!🤞

Haha I get you, I wouldn't worry too much though it sounds like you were well prepared! Thank you for the insight I really appreciate it

Did anyone apply for the Manchester office? They said to me by end of the month they will be in touch..should I presume it’s a rejection :/

Hi I did, have you had an interview? I haven't so I'm thinking it might be a rejection :/

I'm thinking perhaps they are doing different offices at different times? I interviewed for London last week and they also told me end of the month

I think you're right. I had my interview today and they told me they would get back to me at the end of March. FYI, it was for the business services sector in London.

I think you’re right, may be depending on offices! Thank you for letting me know

Hi! Yes I had it on Wednesday!
Ah I see, normally after the WG if successful they invite you to one and the window to book your slot has gone - sorry to hear about yours 😥 maybe better luck next time xx

Does anyone know how many vac scheme places there are?

I think the do not hold VS anymore

 

[Martin S.]

So, I just (literally) had my interview and for those still wondering, the questions were on skills needed for the role, HD position in the market and challenges faced by the firm.

There was maybe 16 of us last year for Liverpool office but not 100% sure on that number. Not sure how it varies for different offices
