same today was just me checking my emails incessantly, only to find it's emails from like uber eats or something 😭😭 im glad they at least sent emails tho saying they're still in the process of checking applications, some other companies cant be asked smh

Yeahhhh at least they're nice like that. Like literally had an email from sky today but nope just them letting me know that they're still reviewing the application stuff. kinda frustrating but it's fine it'll be worth it if I get the apprenticeship

do you know if people have gotten auto rejected already? or maybe they're just reviewing all applications

Usually with these assessment the ppl who don't meet the bench mark get auto but if it above they check it and send u thru to the next stage

So you're basically saying chances are that we get through to the next stage is pretty decent?

a good chance cos for me it been a little less than a week which usually means u passed the benchmark and actual humans are going to assess it, but I'm not 100% certain!

I've been looking around for software developer apprenticeships and there isn't that many out at this time of year I think. But honestly I kinda hope to get this one because I can imagine it must be cool working for such a big company

For me it would be a lil bit of a travel but it would end up being so worth it if I end up with an apprenticeship in a really nice looking place with a company which I've actually heard of.

yhhh that why make sure u research the company properly and make sure you know how they work etc, for me it no that far so it more appealing

☹️ I just got my results back. Looks like I'm not continuing with my application. looks like I won't be seeing you guys in Osterley. Oh well there is always Brentwood I can try (I would say Leeds as well but I'm not willing to travel nearly 3 hrs to get there)

(update turns out I can't apply for another one, guess they thought that through at least)

They didn't say why. which is annoying I'd at least want to know a reason even if they have a set of generic reasons at to why but nope no personalised feedback at this stage of the process due to the volume of applications
