[QUOTE="ChuPnl, post: 73841, member: 10551"] Thank you for contributing and sharing this story Neville! It is always hard to reflect on rejections, so thank you for showing us a more vulnerable side of your story. I really like how you pointed out that this rejection helped you understand your motivations better, and that you were able to take their feedback and use it to gain further VS and TC offers. I can definitely imagine how frustrating it must be to do a non-working VVS (I fear that mine may be similar in structure) as it doesn't always allow you to perform to the best of your abilities. Your story also shows that, even when someone performs well on most of the tasks, it does not determine whether they will get an offer - but it also means that you don't necessarily need to tick all the boxes to get the offer (one firm might place more weight on motivation/on the interview, where other firms may focus on the quality of your written task). As you have rightfully said, feedback is the best thing you can get - which is definitely the message I am trying to convey with this thread. [/QUOTE]
