I completed my DO on the 20th April and then got an email on 24th saying I had passed but put on hold due to other candidates ahead of me and then on the 25th got the email for LP


Like wise but slightly quicker

I was also put on hold for LP on the 30/04.. as people received their LP invites earlier, do you guys think it is a timing thing and they aren’t sending out invites anymore?

I think they have sent out all offers for LP already as those who got it have already had introductory seminars on it so doubt they will send out more

I spoke to someone on admissions, they said that if they may do another LP depending on business needs, so hopefully it is a good sign that we've not been outright rejected - is your LP box also purple on the portal?

All the best to you too! These were my timeframes:
Accepted for TSB 14/04
Completed TSB 18/04
On hold from TSB for DO 22/04
Accepted for DO 23/04
Completed DO 27/04
On hold from DO for LP 30/04
No updates since

Icl you really shouldn't underestimate how competitive these schemes are. To be in for the best chance of proceeding, online assessments really need to be completed the day of/day after invite receipt. I've heard of people who went from application (on day apps were opened) to DO submission in 4 days who are still on hold to receive LP invite. Just for future advice! I'm sorry you're on hold; LP invite is just a matter of luck and good timing.

posted this on a different thread but i emailed grad recruitment yesterday asking if they are holding any other ACs and today they emailed back:

“Your application is currently on hold at the moment.

The team is currently looking to put together another launch pad in the summer. You will receive an update on the progression of your application once this has been confirmed.

Kind Regards”

so potentially hope for those on hold, hopefully they do decide to hold an additional LP 😅 best of luck everyone!

I was told we’ll receive a call today between 4pm and 5pm, regardless of the outcome. How’s everyone feeling about it?

The interview process was setup quite poorly in my opinion , there is so much noise from other people you cant even think properly .I had to ask the interviewer to repeat the question sometimes
