Has anyone received anything from Clyde and Co other than a skills report after completing the online assessment? Looking at answers from last year it seems VI's were sent out within 48 hours so just trying to gauge if it is the same this year.

Might be because they are non-rolling?

Hellooo!! I describe the work without naming the client or using internal project names or terminology.

So rather than: "I worked on the XYZ project/case/deal for XYZ, which included XYZ"

I’d say: "I worked on a network infrastructure upgrade across a hospitality company's portfolio. This involved presenting to stakeholders at different levels and scheduling engineers across multiple sites. As a result, I achieved XYZ."

It still shows the scale, the sector and your impact without giving anything confidential away. Unless someone digs into your employer, that client could be ANYONE.

Thank you! That makes sense.
