You’ll get scenarios that you would face as a trainee there and you choose from options what actions you’d take. It’s quite straightforward and nothing to stress aboutJust submitted my Simmons application and got the link for the online judgement test. I've never done a test before so was wondering if there are any tips/things to watch out for?
@George.E. @OB @Mxkry maybe if you can help
Personally I never got one. Someone on here said they were going to manually go through the SJT outcomes due to all their issues with it this cycle so they’re probably just going round resending them to everyone!
Hey - sorry to hear that you didn't convert your VS.
Hey - I've completed Simmons' SJT several times. I don't think there is a lot you can do to prepare but would recommend looking up the firm's core values and the competencies they look for in trainees. I'd then keep these in mind whilst answering the questions but also try to answer with what you would really do in that situation.Just submitted my Simmons application and got the link for the online judgement test.

Hey Melissa - I don't think they would reject you for not mentioning something. I think it will be about what you have written and whether it's convincing, genuine and well reasoned. Hope that helps
Haha this is what I’m hoping! I’ve definitely got a whole host of other reasons for applying but I noticed it was something that is spoken about a lot and was worried it would be obvious if it wasn’t mentioned! Thank you for responding Flora ❤️Hey Melissa - I don't think they would reject you for not mentioning something.

No worries. I think as long as you've mentioned other reasons/evidence which is unique/specific to them you'll do great! Good luck
Same for me - I received a second SJT outcome email yesterday and still no change to the outcome of my application 😭
I think so, though TCLA is a minute proportion of the number of applicants competing for vac schemes. We simply have no idea whether the 1000s who applied to A&O have heard back yet.
Thank you! HSF is a tricky one. I thought I nailed everything in that application but clearly not lol.
May also be dependent upon the scheme you applied for. I applied for the TC 2024 and passed the SJT, but I've heard nothing since.
If it's any consolation, they rejected me for the first-year workshop 3 years ago because I didn't meet the psychometric test benchmark. Haven't forgiven them since.
