I applied on the deadline and just got an email to say I passed the first screening and invited to psychometric test. So if you applied it should be fine!I don't suppose anyone knows whether it's too late to apply for NRF's Winter Vacation scheme? Today is the deadline, but I'm not sure whether that means 23:59 today or when it became today.
They offer a Spring vacation scheme as well, so I could apply to that instead, but I'm itching to get on with things ASAP 🙃
Did you just receive this email from NRF just now??I applied on the deadline and just got an email to say I passed the first screening and invited to psychometric test. So if you applied it should be fine!

If you don’t mind me asking, what stage did you get to?PFO from Dechert WVS. Oh well :/
Thanks that's really helpful!I did a successful interview for the SVS earlier this year. There was no case study. Unless they've changed the format, my experience was that it was really very conversational. They are, of course, assessing motivation, commercial awareness, knowledge of the firm etc. but they also really try to get to know as a person and have some 'debates' about various issues. Pretty unique experience as far as formal interviews go to be honest but I really enjoyed it. A bit of cliched advice but I genuinely think the best strategy is just to be yourself.
Hi @Phoenix for all,I applied slightly earlier than you did and haven’t heard a word - really hope it’s not a PFO..
