[QUOTE="GlamB, post: 27662, member: 4029"] I'm not saying that people should not have a conversation with the firms because they absolutely should. I'm just trying to point out how difficult this might be for some/why they might be worried to do so. It is easy for all of us to say that here but if I were in that situation, I can imagine I would find it quite hard too. How many people would be comfortable asking a firm where they want to make an impression for a laptop? Would the firm be willing to go through all that trouble for a 3-day-long online internship? I don't know the answer to the second question but I can imagine many applicants not being comfortable making such demands for a variety of reasons, justified or not. Communication is key, I agree but when you are in a position where you feel like everything can affect your chances of getting a TC, it's difficult. Anyway, I didn't mean to flood this nice update thread with the sort of conversation which should probably take place elsewhere, so all I'm going to say is fingers crossed everybody and hope it all works out for us in the end! :) [/QUOTE]
