congrats on your offer! :smile: there's a written part to the interview? i thought it was just a maths test, small individual interview and group interview?

no there is no individual interview as such, basically (this is for fashion buying) you go in and you get a maths test which is about 3 pages long, then they show an image on a screen which they would like you to write about anything that comes to mind, then you get your group discussion which involves group questions and then they ask you individual questions. everyone stop worrying about the maths test because i genuinely thought i had failed i didnt even answer all the questions but i think i did really well in the group discussion so it balanced out i think. and thanks x

Isn't there a maths test? I went to my lcf interview and I didn't get through to the next round. If there is then, better get revising.

i honestly have no idea, like i think i did well but i don't think anyone in my group did bad so i really couldn't tell. it wasn't too bad, it was mainly about discussing our work experience, a discussion on current fashion issues, and then like why we are suitable for the course. that's what was asked in the discussion i was in anyways. was much better than i thought it would be.

congrats on your offer! :smile: haven't heard back from lcf yet, i'm wondering if they're waiting for all the interviews for the course to be finished and are then making their decisions?

Hey AnnieJJ, I guess you are over the moon. I will have an interview for the same course at LCF on 24th. They sent a Maths sampl, it seemed pretty easy; I guess they give us harder Maths on the test. How was the group interview? What did they ask?
