I've applied for retail customers and products scheme, completed online test last night. What schemes you apply for?
So many applicants this year likely, I'm so lazy to even start applications... Just have little hope or desire... Though I'm in my master's so i guess in October-November I'll have to start. So much uncertainty in the UK economy though..... With brexit.... I'm wondering if UK applications are even worth it. Maybe I'll just stick with mainland Europe. (I'm German-American) but have a Nottingham undergrad degree... So i guess i could easily apply. And i did indeed secure Right to remain.

what did your 'critical analyst' section say? :smile:
That Lloyds assessment was so hard the numerical calculations where so challenging
Do you mind sharing with us what the tests are like? For e.g. how many questions are there, how long does it take etc. From the website it says that, it takes around 90 mins but it's not timed?

Thank you!

That I might find it challenging to analyse and interpret data and complex information. And I might prefer to analyse data and information from one or two sources over analysing and integrating data from multiple sources. What did yours say?

48 questions. Mixture of numerical where you get to analyse information from different graphs and tables then do calculations and situational where you get to rank items based on what you are most/least likely to do. It says you can use more than 90 minutes and the time doesn't matter as long as you do it in one go. It took me a lot more than 90 minutes but I'm naturally slower than average when it comes to reading
I just applied for the Commercial Banking role. Going to do the online tests in a few days. Good luck everyone with their applications! :smile:
Did you guys get your feedback straight away because I have just finished my online test and I have not received any email yet.
