Natwest 2024 Graduate Scheme

Just completed the online assessment, I got scores of 99, 94, 95 - not sure how that compares to others? I feel that my interview section went okay but I REALLY fumbled the first question (which ironically should have been the most straightforward!) - does anyone know when we hear back about the next stage :smile:

Similar to mine, I got 99 95 and 95, know a couple of people who got 99 on all fronts. We should hear back end of October/start of November, as ACs are held starting from mid-late november

Do you know if they have different benchmarks for each of the programmes? If you don't mind me asking, what scheme did you apply for? I applied for SCD&S in London :smile:

I applied for Financing Solution - London. Tbh, I think mostly it's just to check if you can pass the minimum benchmark to progress you to the next stage, but of course, it may also be used to rank and differentiate applicants, I guess it only matters let's say you have 99 and there's a very similar candidate to your profile but they scored 75, but even then I'm not sure how much they look into it and yes, I'm guessing the benchmarks for comparison will differ according to programme, but the minimum benchmark should be same across all programmes if that makes sense.

did everyone find the tests easy this year and does anyone have an idea if the first test actually counts (sjt)? the results on this thread are amazing - I don't think I did very well in comparison!

I received my result after a week, perhaps because I completed my assessment in the first few days after the scheme was posted. It may take them a while now due to the higher volume of applications

Sorry, to confirm do you mean the feedback reports or a further update? That's all I've had back since applying too (report)! Agreed, I think they've got a lot of applications now but wondering when they'll start assessment centres or let us know if we've passed the VI...

They sent an email said that I have passed the VI and move on to the final stage to wait for the AC invitation, and that was after the feedback report. But tbf I'm not sure whether I could receive the invitation or not.

I got an email saying I passed the video interview and progressed to the next stage which is a virtual assessment center. However they stated that

Spaces at the next stage are limited and we can’t guarantee you an assessment place. Our assessment centres run through until April.
