Posting this here cause I've barely seen any thread on it but is anyone here preparing for an AC with the NAO or has gotten an offer from them recently i.e. at most 3 to 4 years ago.
Would really appreciate any guidance and tips and tricks you think worked for you or will work for you.

Hi, I've got an assessment centre too and they just got back to me today. I'm in a group chat of people who have done different a/cs and they basically said not to talk over people, know to re-direct a convo and make sure you're not so quiet that people are asking for your input. Is yours for the accountancy scheme or the digital technology one?
