[QUOTE="aliiiisonxooox, post: 250763, member: 42822"] Had DLA post AC feedback. Honestly gutted. 😭 They told me that the partner was super impressed w me for the motivation of the firm, but that I lacked structure ( it was a motivational and strength based interview, and they recommended me to use a very structured STAR. ) I did use STAR although not as structured as I would in a competency interview. 🥹 Positive feedback for the group, I took ownership and was able to interact well? Presentation with partner- really good presentation, good commercial awareness, was able to pick up lots of points, lack of structure again. Although it has said not to use formal language so I didn’t give executive summary.. just gave an intro and moved on. It’s really hard to comprehend that I failed because of the structure. They told me to be more succinct. English is my second language and sometimes it’s hard to express myself properly. I’m really confused by lack of structure in both interview and presentation. Can someone help me how to improve on this? 🤧😊 thanks. [/QUOTE]
