Hey, what was your final score at the end for Career Unlocked?

How do you find out? What did you get?
Original post by Mr XcX
Yep. Failed Grant Thornton. I suffer from social anxiety so it was hard considering it was my first proper interview. So nervous :frown: Oh well still go a few going.

Everyone fails their first one. Takes a while to get used to them.

It says so at the end of the game. I got somewhere in the 9000s. Do you remember what you got?

I downloaded the practice app they suggested which was called firefly freedom and then I just went for it. I don't think there is much you can do to practice. It quite odd!

Anyone done Stage 3 for EY?
I just did the KPMG tests and let me tell you guys. IT WAS THE WORST.

Well actually the SJT and Verbal are relatively easily, and pretty easy to go through.

However, the numerical is by far the worst numerical test ever!!

-I highly recommend using practice tests, preferably not the ones provided by KPMG because the actual ones are way more difficult, and I mean WAYYY MOREE DIFFICULT.

I did. It was more-less numerical based on a case-study, with written exercise and 2 video recording question related to technology (my role is Assurance).

I was just reading some comments which are fake as I can definitely confirm that graduatejobguide is the only place where you can find identical tests for all Big 4 and some banks. You can also ask for document/test previews on their chat if you don't trust me. I don't think I would have progressed to all Big 4 video interviews by this time without their help.

Regarding PwC I think they have increased the benchmark for game-based assessment. If you score over 9800 you'll get the interview invitation immediately.
