[QUOTE="Afraz Akhtar, post: 234343, member: 43563"] You can, but what good will it achieve? Either they find out and both applications get withdrawn OR they don't find out and one day whilst you're enjoying the lavish life that an NQ salary got you, you're listening to "Sweet Fantasy by Mariah Carey" as you're walking your way through the busy streets of Farringdon and BOOM you notice an email from the the graduate recruitment partner, they want to talk about your application from years ago and the SRA have been notified. You panic, thinking what could it have been.... did you mess up a client file, did you misplace funds, did you lie on an email? No, all you did was send in two applications but for the SRA this was it! The next thing you know, your face is plastered all over Legal Cheek, and you're dealing with a penalty/bar from service. Goodbye career, goodbye mortgage, goodbye all that wasted effort to draft amazing applications. People will be scouring LinkedIn to see if they can put a face to that name... But.... it probably won't get that far, although it is tempting ATS's have duplication systems that compare applicants for plagiarism, and personal details are flagged within this check. [/QUOTE]
