I’d take that as Friday 12 Jan if it says 10 working days started from the 29th December.Speaking about Simmons, this is a dumb question but I want to know the latest I can do it:
I was invited to the test on Thursday 28th and starting from tomorrow (aka the 29th), I have ten working days to complete the test. When is the latest I can do it? I have a rough idea but I just want to double check
Hi, I also worked four hospitality/fast-food/retail jobs during uni all with similar transferrable skills so I understand what you mean. In all my applications this year, I decided to lump all of those experiences together under one work experience header as "Part-time jobs (alongside degree) within Retail and Hospitality" - I used about 150 words to describe the different job roles I held, how may hours I worked, transferrable skills etc. I hope that helps in terms of not listing each hospitality job under separate headers!What's the consensus on using all 250 words per experience in the work experience section? I worked four different hospitality jobs during uni, and there are only so many ways I can talk about pulling pints.
My main work experiences following graduation are all in the region of 250 words.
This isn't true, there is numerical reasoning involved.just SJT
You don’t have to use the full count. It’s only there for if it is needed, and for many roles a much shorter description will be appropriate.What's the consensus on using all 250 words per experience in the work experience section?

If you have no ties to the location you are applying to, there can be concerns more about whether you will enjoy life outside of work, so that could be a factor as to why.I find it quite funny (not in a positive way) that when I do apps for English offices I barely get through the first stage or so if I am lucky. However, when I do applications for the same firms but are based in Scotland (where I got my llb) I get much further through the process. I have experience in international firms so quite sad and doesn’t feel genuine when firms say they are open to those without an English LLB or career changers. Just my own experience
How do you find out this information? (on how you scored on WG)‘Wouldn’t bother doing the test’
I think I would’ve done fine on the Watson Glaser part of the test tbh.

I have completed it but there isn‘t any numerical reasoning involved.This isn't true, there is numerical reasoning involved.
Were there any Watson Glaser questions? Verbal reasoning?I have completed it but there isn‘t any numerical reasoning involved.
I understand that it seems a fairly innocuous variable though. I was successful for an English vac scheme but was met with disdain when I participated in it so perhaps it’s a culture issue.If you have no ties to the location you are applying to, there can be concerns more about whether you will enjoy life outside of work, so that could be a factor as to why.
It could be about alignment in personality/culture too - this can even vary across offices within the same firm.I understand that it seems a fairly innocuous variable though.

yes, there was a part similar as Watson Glaser.Were there any Watson Glaser questions? Verbal reasoning?
Hey can I ask if this was for spring or summer?W&C VI interview done. My first ever one so it's a good mental hurdle to overcome. Screwed up the 1st answer but feel ok about my 2nd and 3rd answers. Out of my hands now tho
