mylocker doesn't allow you save work experience.

Oh lol yeah you're right - I was convinced the post said grades. Might be time for sleep haha

if a firm asks to provide a cv, do we also need to fill out the work experience section? it's optional @Afraz Akhtar

Hey @Bread sorry for the late response to this, but if something is optional, it's usually not relied on in any assessment of your application form. It is either there to make the graduate recruitment's life easier, if they decide to screen off the ATS instead of a CV or it'll be something they may refer to if the process gets heavily competitive.

As it's something you could relatively copy from the CV, I would include it anyway - just to be safe.

Good luck!

urgenttt 🥲I’ve been invited to a Bank of England video interview due tomorrow. However, I’ve just been emailed about amended eligibility criteria from the University of Law, which the Bank of England uses for its programme, now requiring Trusts. I achieved a first-class law degree at a top Russell Group university but did not take Trusts as it wasn’t required for my course. I’m unsure how to proceed, especially as the email arrived at 5pm today and I may not receive a response in time. Should I still complete the video interview? Any advice would be appreciated, im sooo upset by this. sigh I wish they disclosed this before.

@Afraz Akhtar do you have any advice for this, please?
