[QUOTE="Alice G, post: 42343, member: 1160"] Hey guys - I posted something similar in one of the general chats but open days and workshops are often much more competitive than TC and vacation scheme applications. For workshops and open days, firms need to be selective because they are mindful they need to make them valuable and so need to confine numbers slightly to ensure this. Often firms will only run a couple of these open days a year so there really aren’t many places available. With TCs and vacation schemes firms have much more leeway to invite candidates to ACs because they can often run many of these in a week and some firms do two a day! So for those of you who didn't get a winter workshop place please try not to worry too much - reflect on your submissions, try to make them as good as they can be and it does not mean you will not progress to interview just because you didn't get the workshop place, as I say, these are incredibly competitive.
