from the ones i've done you're sent the written exercise usually through a special platform they use to conduct the virtual AC and then you are given i.e. 30 mins to complete and have to send it back to them within that time frame. I've also had a written exercise sent to me in the morning and i have to complete it and send it back by email before the interview so dependent on the firm really
for links, we were given a specific platform to write, spelling and grammer checks were off. you are expected to keep your camera on whilst writing and someone within the call will say when its time to stop.
From my experience, I could only open the task at a certain time and it was only open for 30 minutes through an online platform - I had to write directly into the platform text box my answer, the submissions automatically saved over x period of time. Other than that no active supervision, I presume just checking the text box for progress. There was no camera or screen recording aspect.
In the past, I found myself frequently looking at the picture of myself in the VI, rather than maintaining constant eye contact with the camera. Admittedly, staring into a lens initially feels weird, particularly if you aren’t transitioning from a broadcasting career.
However, since adopting a focus on the lens during my VI’s, I've experienced greater success. While the intensity of continuous eye contact with a lens often does seem slightly unnatural, I've found that breaking that gaze a couple of times within a two-minute timeframe, akin to the natural rhythm of regular eye contact when talking in person, enhances the overall connection and engagement.
Linklaters PFO post AC.. I have another AC tomorrow but got the call today and I'm feeling so gutted I can't think straight. How do I let this PFO go and focus on my next AC? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, am feeling quite disheartened right now. 😥
Can I just ask how you know? the email they sent said its just a research exercise and presentation, and we basically did a watson glacer test for the previous stage

Is it worth still applying to Cleary Summer VS since they’re already giving out VS offers?
had a quick look online: the only place saying that there is another stage after this is their website. Everywhere else says that this is the final stage for a VC, including this article from the recruitment manager: https://targetjobs.co.uk/careers-ad...rke-training-contract-tips-graduate-recruiter
Think it is quite unclear though, and a lot of the information seems to be slightly outdated. Would be very surprising if there is a WG test given, as you say, we have basically already had to do one. Hopefully there is another email from them clarifying.
I applied about a week before the Winter VS and was told that they had already filled up their spaces. Fortunately they said they would consider me for the Spring/Summer VS so it seems they are somewhat flexible.
For a in-person AC, are you generally allowed to bring in pre-written notes? Also, will you be able to write notes during the AC day itself (written exercise/case study/partner interview etc)?
Does Baker's assessment include a VI?
"This half-day session runs virtually and involves a commercial exercise and a Watson Glaser test (an aptitude test which assesses your critical thinking ability). These exercises allow us to find out more about your communication skills, commercial understanding and problem solving ability."
Taken from their website, hope this helps👍
