Aside from the banks I quoted, did I forget anyone? Barclays did not open yet it seems.

I submitted my application like a month ago and finally got a response. Unfortunately it was just to say my application is NOW under review

If you get past Credit Suisse verbal reasoning test does it mean you passed it? Just completed CS apps and I think I faired well on numericals, but slightly unsure on my verbal competency.

Screwed up my Morgan Stanley Test. Did it at midnight and just wasn't concentrating at all. Half the time I was on my phone from not being bothered -.-

What a waste.

How long do you wait until MS ask you to do the numerical test after applying?

I did it straight after the application. I submitted it a couple hours back and the test invite was instant.

Hey I was wondering if it is too late to start sending applications for sw?. Some people at my uni who did it last year said after mid October your chances diminish a lot as they have already got many applicants who are good enough by then.
Also as the actual deadlines for most are in January is there an deadline/time after which your chances do significantly diminish?

I'd say mid November. Albeit I'd advise applying now.

Thanks for the reply and yes I am hoping to send all my applications off by mid next week.
Also usually there are more than one assessment centres run right?

Hi guys,

when writing my cover letter for some of the spring week applications, who should I address it to? head of campus recruitment (or another position), or would it just be best to put sir/madam?

Dear Campus/Graduate Recruitment is fine unless you know HR personally.
