Congrats! No second assessment centre these days?


I don't think so- I had two interviews in the afternoon- one foundation and one business interview. Have received an email saying I've passed exercises and interview and they're looking for suitable roles. Not sure what this means now though - as in if this is the matching process or not now as their application process has changed.
For the IBM first round assessment centre what do they cover for travel costs? Do they reimburse accommodation as well? Given that we have to be there at 8.15am, I'm going to need to stay overnight in London!!

your email inviting you to AC should explain this- I think you can get accommodation costs reimbursed if they're approved first?

I guess it means KPMG has had enough applicants for its Strategy grad scheme.
2.1 in Economics from a top 10 university
400 UCAS points from top three A levels.
Passed all the online tests with maximum grades.

...Rejected from PWC before interview

Email from EY on 15th September saying I had passed all the online tests and they'd be in touch shortly about the next stages but I still haven't heard anything? Not sure whether to chase them up?

I did them 1 or 2 days before I got the email. Just received the same email for Deloitte so I hope they're a bit quicker in replying!

hi mate, I submitted my application yesterday, but I haven't received any invite for online tests, any idea how long it took you to get invited to do tests?

Same thing happened to me last year - I dominated the tests (or at least according to my feedback I did) but didn't progress to interview. Is there a service-line questionnaire/ personality test at all? Maybe it's that or your cover letter?
