In person 100%. I think group tasks are especially artificial/awkward when done virtually.

Has anyone heard back from withers post online test? did the assessment a couple of weeks back now and haven't heard anything

 

[Palilegal]

At this point, I mentally checked out of RS. But I got nothing yet, hope I hear back by the end of today so I can get it out of the way. Did anyone receive an AC during the rapid-fire rejection streak?

Did the test back in Nov and have not heard anything since.

Hi @Jessica Booker does it matter if you forget to tick the "as-level" under the "level" tab when it states "Secondary education subjects e.g. AS levels, Baccalaureate, HKALE, HKDSE, Scottish Highers" when putting in your as-levels after submitting your app or is that something grad recruitment would penalise you for?

I doubt they will even notice.

Thank you, might be just getting a bit paranoid because I'm now not sure whether I put "Mr" for the title in personal details!

They really won't care about that.
