The DFID one year graduate scheme

Scroll to see replies

At the event they held at my uni, they said having a Masters would not be viewed as an advantage. They are looking to give people their 'first step up on the ladder' so are just as interested in finding BAs as they are MAs.

No idea if that's changed, but that's what they said on the day.

ah thank you. so has anyone heard any more? or any idea when the other ACs will be? i wonder if those of us who have not heard are just rejected?

There is no point worrying about something that isn't even a problem yet.

a girl in my uni said her friend had been at one recently. i presumed it was a second but maybe it was the same one if no one else has heard?

surely they'd let us know if we weren't successful?

I don' think they'll extend it again. it's just weird that some people seem to have heard ages ago and we haven't heard anything.

I assume they just keep everyone on hold until the last day, a very big reserve list, then send out the rejections.

I thought the website said ACs in April, May and June. So it's surprising to hear that there may have been two in April alone.
