On a separate note, having left PwC as the last application for me to submit, I have to complete online tests by Monday. Does anyone know whether this means midnight or 6pm or some other unspecified time? Any clarification is much appreciated :smile:


Click on the online test link. What does the SHL test page say under the deadline/expiry column?

Nope, but that was last year though. Secured a grad job since then.

Best of luck for yours!

Im just worried as I had my AC on Tuesday and havent heard back :frown:
Has the Accenture grad process changed??

I had an open application for FY15 Analyst Consulting Group, but this has apparently closed now?

The only thing I can apply to is FY15 Graduate Careers at Accenture??

Any help?

:frown: But my candidate page says they are still reviewing my application though, does yours say the same?
Are most of you in your final year at uni or have you already graduated like me? Looking for some inspiration on what kind of experience I could be getting while I am applying for these places, as I'm becoming increasingly worried about my chances :frown:

I'm in final year (studying abroad) but I guess it's a mix of both, you're not alone so I won't worry too much. Internships can be a good way to bridge the gap. I'm taking up one myself from early next year.

Also graduated. Should have been applying to all these last year but didn't know what I wanted to do. Ended up having an impromptu gap year and fingers crossed I'll land something for next september. I'm doing an internship for a few months and then looking at going abroad in the new year to teach or au pair. don't let the job hunt get you down!

Thanks and good luck in your hunt! I definitely should apply for some internship or volunteer at the very least. Is your internship flexible with regard to taking days off to attend interviews etc? I took a gap year before university, so ideally I want to secure a job this year, otherwise I am sort of 2 years late coming into the graduate schemes :/
