I see, I applied as soon as it opened and I'm still waiting post-passed tests so it doesn't look too good. Best of luck with your interview!

You never know, the timing of these things can be so weird. Fingers crossed though

Does anyone know how long M&G usually take to get back to you after the online tests?

I completed the tests on 27th August, and got a reply to say I was unsuccessful on 24th September.
On the feedback report (all 7 pages of it zzz) I scored 'above average' in all areas but their standard must have been higher than that. Hope that helps

Wow a month! Thanks for the info, and that's so long! sorry to hear about that and I hope you're having better luck with other firms, so far I've had a couple of rejections as well so know how it feels! Fingers crossed for us both :smile:

I got above average in everything but one bit of the critical reasoning.

Yeah I got the same email from JPM as well. Also what is everyones view on Man Group? It says its a graduate trainee program but I have read elsewhere that it is simply a grad role and not a traditional scheme - wondering if thats a good or a bad thing.

Anyone heard back from HSBC after passing tests for Grad AM? Are they still interviewing or are all places filled?
Has anyone done the M&G video interview and can give me an idea on what it was like?
