Hi, does anyone have any advice for the PwC virtual AC This is my very first AC so any help or insight would be very appreciated!

when did you do your VI because I did it on the 4th of December and still did not hear back from them

 

[futuretraineeihope]

IDK whether to laugh or cry from Bakers' VI, last yr's forum comments were so right - those questions were so unorthodox
I am taking my christmas break early, good luck to whoever has it!!

PS. Defo defo look at the threads on the forum for advice!!!!

Well done for doing it! I’m doing it today! Where are the threads can I ask? i’m so nervous i need all the advice I can get

I have been offered a VS scheme at a firm that has both a spring and summer option. If all goes well and i get offered a TC (fingers crossed) would they offer me this in spring (the week ive opted for) or would they wait until the summer one has completed also?

Can I ask when did you apply?

 

[Miles Edgeworth]

Goodwin VI, after the Bird & Bird rejection before even the WG I am so relieved I could cry (genuinely not joking)

The wording on their application process suggests that it's not automatic, so well done with your application! Good luck with the VI!

Did anyone that just got a Goodwin vi apply for summer? Or do we reckon they’re trying to push out spring first
