Congrats to those who have progressed to the next stage!! I completed the test on Sunday so not sure whether I should just expect a PFO since others have been contacted today. Does any know whether they sort through the test according to the day you sit it or the date of the original application?

Hopefully it’s based on the date of the original application… congrats to those who have been invited to the interview. Please do continue to let us know when you received your invitation! Thanks :)

    I got through to the psychometric testing stage. Got an email about it today. It has a test called Arctic Shores. Can someone tell me what it is? Is it a game-based assessment?

    I haven't received my reply other than the standard generated one after submitting my application, should I be worried? I just joined this thread and this is my first time applying so I'm confused about how it goes.
    Hi - not all WG invites are sent on the same day so there is still hope you may receive a WG invite :)

    Also the Watson Glaser test invite is not automatic, so they do a first screening.

    If you are successful following the WG test, you will receive an invite to a telephone interview.

    Hope that helps to understand the recruitment process at NRF.

    Thank you so much! The poll only has options post WG so I thought the majority of people had received the WG email. When do you think they'll send out WG emails till? Next week?

    I do not know 100% but I would say it is probable to receive an invite next week. When did you apply ? :)

    I would say if you look at last year's forum thread (Direct TC) using the search function you might find the last date applicants received invites! I did that with some firms to get an idea of the timeline :)

    Hi everyone; my first time posting here. Those arctic shores tests 😭. This is my second time applying for a training contract; I applied to Clifford Chance but failed the WG last time. This time I applied to NRF and White & Case. Thankfully this time, I passed the WG and the Game based assessment and on to the telephone interview. I joined TCLA to help with the WG, and I'm shocked at how much I need to learn about commercial awareness. All of this is new to me, so Im working my way through the TCLA courses and trying to learn as much as possible. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
