Last night I submitted my first TC application (the deadline is 5pm today), which feels really early! A lot of the larger firms have their deadlines in June/July (though of course this is because they recruit for VSes first).

Hey! Yes 27th of Feb - I haven't heard anything back yet. They did say it could take a few weeks to get back to me since they are actively doing interviews. A trainee I spoke to said he heard back 2-3 weeks after his interview so hopefully I hear back next week. When did you do yours?

Hi I did mine last week. I was expecting it next week. But based on what you have said, its gonna take so long. I am very nervous about it. 27th Feb was a Sunday? Are u sure it was on 27th or was it 28th because it is unlikely they have ACs on weekends. Anyways u applied for a Training contract or Vacation Scheme?

Same TC. I think they might aggregate the results and send it today. Let’s be hopeful, I just want this wait to be over. The wait is exhausting. I can imagine how difficult it will be for you to wait from 28th.

Yes the wait has been hard! I think if Im honest I've probably missed out but the experience was good. Lets hope to get something back today!

True that. Just hoping for a miracle. Nothing as of now yet. The waiting is a painful game. Any news yet in your end?

Nope nothing. Its painful checking the email every 5 minutes. Haha. How about you? Tommo is Friday, unlikely they send out anything. It will be next Monday most likely. Do you know anyone who got it? And when did they get it? Or any past experiences? Cuz i have always got offers in the next day of AC, it has never taken weeks.

Yeah same for me I've never waited weeks for a response usually comes back within 3 days lol. I guess its fresh fields so just different I guess. Yeah I would think next week they'd surely have to give some reply back the wait is terrible!
