Heya, have you taken the OIA? if so how difficult was it in comparison to the practice test.

yes I did practice a bit on the Graduate First website before doing OIA, i think it's average difficulty. Have you applied it yet ?

Hi guys I was thinking about applying to this graduate programme but I only have a policy analyst internship as my professional experience and I feel like this is maybe a long shot. would you recommend the internship instead and is there any general advice you guys might have for me?

I'd take no news as good news! Did you get a benchmark email?

I reckon a bulk of applications start coming through mid-September so next step emails might start getting sent out mid/end of this month (all speculative tho)

No I didn't get any benchmark email, I agree with you tbh, because today the application for strategy and transformation is closed, so I feel next week we might be able to hear something back
