Boots Summer Placement 2014
Scroll to see replies
Original post by StrawberryKoi
For those of you not in 3rd year, are you planning on applying to other places as well? Because co-op and Lloyds offer 4 and 6 week placements whereas Boots is only 2 weeks, but the dates collide and they won't be replying any time soon so we have to accept the Boots offer asap. >_< Co-op says if you want to apply for 3rd year placement and pre-reg, you need to have had a minimum of 4 weeks of experience!
I applied to lloyds not going to apply for co-op. If I get Lloyds I'm going to accept that but I'm going to have to accept Boots like today. This is so confusing. :/

I got accepted as well. But the location. Why does it have to be so far :'( Don't know what to do and I don't even have that long to decide.. they should ideally give us longer!
I have that problem too... I am from NI and the offer is in Wales!!

At least you're in the same country - I'm from London and my placement's in South-West Scotland
I accepted my offer because if you don't, you can't work for them as you didn't show interest in Boots and the chance of getting an offer in 3rd year(next year) is really rare! It will be worth to save some money now and renting out a studio/room and just travel there and back once to save cash! It's such a pain... Like they gave me my third choice! EHHHH

Already accepted it. Even though it's like 6 hours away from me, it's the only option I have so far and I'm not letting that slip away - and also, you can't really say 'no' to Boots

You're in the same boat as me then! If I get an offer from Lloyds, I'll accept it and then proceed to beg Boots to release my soul.

Is anyone having problems with the sign and submit on the offer letter? I try and click it and it highlights yet when I close the letter it still says pending? Any help pleassseeee?
Are you using google chrome? A lot of people including myself had this problem, if so I managed to get it to work using internet explorer. When you click it using this it should update to complete.
