[QUOTE="Kubed, post: 97512, member: 8822"] While I can understand the disappointment and frustration you must be feeling at the moment, I think it will be important to reflect on the scheme, your approach to it and the feedback you received once you have had a chance to digest the news. As others have said, the reasons are unlikely to do with visa concerns or Omicron at the VS stage. One thing I would add to what others have said is that being the loudest in the room is not necessarily a deciding factor - while it's obviously important to contribute and be engaged, a big part of being in a workplace is having an ability to listen and encouraging others to participate when possible. Additionally, asking fewer [I]good [/I]questions is better than just asking questions for the sake of asking. In some ways, a vac scheme is supposed to be a simulation of how you would operate as a trainee (as far as that is possible in a short space of time when you're trying to impress) and fit into the firm's culture so I would focus on that.
