How long after spring vacation schemes are training contract offers usually given?
Can be fairly immediate (e.g. week after the scheme) or potentially not until all schemes, including summer programmes, have concluded.

I would ask the GR team if they can provide you with an indication of their timelines.

    Here is my daily “has anyone heard from W&C post AC” post.

    It’s been 6 weeks now and they said they would get back after a week. Is anyone else in a similar position? Feel like a PFO is inevitable if it takes that long.
    im in the same position as you but i think they're just sending it out in batches and giving offers according to the AC dates. the last people who heard back (w offers) were those who gave their ACs on the 3rd and 4th of March. i think now that the spring scheme is done, we should hopefully hear back soon!

    During an AC for a summer vacation scheme, should I mention that I will be attending a summer vacation scheme at another firm?
    I don’t think you have to mention it unless it naturally comes up in conversation. It may come up through questioning in an interview or graduate recruitment/HR may ask what your availability for the summer is if they are running multiple vacation scheme dates.
