Yeah haha I think they are! Although one of my mates has applied there for events management (as her top choice) and she got an offer the same day as she sent her application! So I was kind of worried until people said about then taking a while! It's a good one to have first tbh becuase it's quite relaxed and you don't have to do too much! :smile:

Yes a friend of mines applied there for a business course and she got an offer very quick whereas I'm still waiting. I'm worried to but I suppose they have up to May to get back to you. I couldn't believe it when I came onto this site and seen that they didn't do a one-to-one interview. How long did the presentations last for the group you be allocated?

Yeah I think it just depends on the course tbh! Yeah there is still a while left before their times runs out. Yeah I was surprised when I saw it in the email that there was no one to one interview aswell! There was four in my group and four in all the other groups aside from one which had five, but everyone's presentations lasted between 1&2 mins then about a minute for everyone else to think of questions to ask and that person to answer! Then there was a five to ten minute group discussion about a video that you watch on the day!:smile:

In sure they will! When did you apply? They split all the candidates up into four groups of eight to ten and take each of the four groups into a seperate room, then split that group I eight to ten into two groups and you sit at opposite ends of the room so you can hear the other groups but not properly! Basically for the group discussion you watch a fifteen minute DVD (before they split you up) which you makes notes about on a sheet of paper try gig you with different sections that giv you hints on what sort of things to write. In the group I was in, someone would raise a point that they had noticed, for example our DVD was about a French multi age class I think it was, so someone said about how the teacher has to teach people of different ages in the same lesson and you talk about it as a group, it's basically just a chilled conservation tbh! And no there is or other presentation apart from the 1/2 min one you prepare :smile:

My interview is Wednesday and I am also wondering this! I panic bought a blue top and some smart black trousers and when I showed my sister she cried with laughter! I looked so weird because I don't own any trousers so I decided I have to wear a skirt or I'm gonna feel weird all day! So I have a kind of black skirt and a purple flower boxy top, tights and black dolly shoes!
