I suspect they’ll tell us today given it’s the last day of April

Hi, @Jessica Booker,

I trust you are well.

I am completing an application and need to answer this question 'What was a time you weren’t able to deliver on a promise and how did you deal with it?' I am trying to understand what is the question asking and do you think I can use a personal example?
Thank you in advance.

They're probably still reviewing apps. My deadline to complete the assessment was last week and the email they sent about the spring scheme suggested they had some issues within their recruitment team. Fingers crossed!

@Jessica Booker would it be okay to PM you about something (It's somewhat sensitive which includes some issues I might not be able to disclose on the public forum)?

Yes - please do

It’s asking because not delivering in a law firm happens from time to time, and they need to hire people who can learn from such experiences, so finding people who have learnt to not over promise/under deliver in the past is a good question to ask.

You can use a personal example for such a question though.
