[QUOTE="Romiras, post: 94522, member: 1993"] If you haven't already, I would ask for as much feedback as you can get from the Graduate Recruitment team and any people that you've worked with directly on the scheme (although you'll have to make a call whether that's something they'll be receptive to, at least for the latter part). From there, you have some tangibles as to what you can work on (assuming the feedback isn't nebulous fluff). Also, it would be good to cast your mind to consider where you feel like you could have improved on. You can consider some questions: 1. Were you on time for every 'event', start of the work day, etc? 2. Did you reach out and network and show a real interest in the firm and it's business? 3. If applicable, did you feel like you performed well in both the scheme component and any final interviews they may have had (this will help you find areas to focus on)? etc You've already secured a vacation scheme once, so you should have some confidence that you're doing a few things right both with respect to how you write your applications and how you approach interviews. I'm sure you'll find it a lot easier the next time round given your experience. [/QUOTE]
