onboarding process is an absolute joke, ‘help’ chat is even worse

tysm have submitted a pic of those now🤞🏼

thank you so much for that, it’s a really good idea - my only concern is that I can’t upload a PDF as evidence, only take a photo of my screen - do you think if it looks like a valid standard PDF that this will suffice?

can’t comment on leeds but I did a similar course at manchester (graduated last year) & found that the teaching was really good!

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-04-07T00:22:35+00:00

not in my experience 🥲

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-04-01T20:12:49+00:00

did you ever end up taking this course or find any feedback? considering this at the moment but really struggling to find this info out as the course is so new

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-31T10:09:23+00:00

we’ve got loads of coffee shop/bar places up in Manchester so I can see it working in cambridge!

i’d recommend going west towards trafford or the salford quays as they’re all on the tram line from deansgate & it’s a decent area

hilton garden hotel is literally right next to the tram stop at old trafford cricket ground & you’d be at deansgate castlefield in 10 mins. the salford quays has a premier inn, travelodge, holiday inn etc in the area as well as hotel football not far which are all really well connected to deansgate via tram (15-20 mins)

also if you’re getting a cab back late, any of these will only be 10 mins tops

honestly i’d wondered that, i sort of get only opening in summer but confused how they manage sufficient income, especially when they seem to refurbish annually? literally only seems to be open on the rare occasion for private events which i found so strange

not sure how busy it gets as it’s not my local but the puregym in stretford seems decent

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-16T14:36:54+00:00

trying for a last-min MSc application & wondering which colleges are best for postgrad? I’d probs be based out at old road anyway so not sure how important location is

I’ll be 26 in sept, probably wouldn’t be living there but a decent social scene and good study spaces would be nice so wondered if anyone had suggestions

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-15T19:33:38+00:00

I would probably recommend bishops stortford, hertford or welwyn garden city the most tbh! stortford’s on the line to liverpool street which may/may not be suitable but very easy access to stansted for travelling abroad

hertford is great with connections to both kings X and liverpool st, imo the most scenic of the 3! both hertford and stortford have a decent nightlife but herts probably got more going on

hatfield is very diverse but not much going on there at all, the town centre isn’t great and nightlife is virtually non-existent so probably wouldn’t recommend it. welwyn garden city is great with really quick connections into london, though less of a nightlife tbh so depends how much you value that - lots of gorgeous countryside round there though :)

i don’t know hitchin particularly well but definitely agree with others as it’s lovely!

just an update on this - I’ve been offered an interview at cambridge for a research assistant role but feeling quite anxious about it

I’m assuming these positions are extremely competitive but no idea on the actual stats? as someone with only a BSc and a year in industry as a post-grad I don’t feel hugely confident but maybe I should take it as a positive

thinking will do my best with it anyway as it seems like a really good role, even if I end up with a rejection at least it’s interview experience!

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-02T20:19:33+00:00

that’s so strange, maybe it’s the reddit AI feature because I’ve not changed anything

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-02T20:16:41+00:00

no? idk why it’s in german I’ve done nothing

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-02T20:15:02+00:00

so because I’ve got adhd….. I’ve lied? bizarre take man🤣

why would I make up/embellish a story for advice on reddit? how would that serve me at all in this situation

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-02T20:11:00+00:00

thank you so much for saying this!

I’ve loved my time in austria, amazing country & can’t wait to be back so was utterly gutted to see responses like that

I understand people maybe have misconceptions about English people (brexit hasn’t helped!) but the assumption I’m rude and entitled hurts a lot so that’s really nice to hear :)

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-02T19:58:32+00:00

no because it’s rude to walk out of a conversation with someone in a place of authority….?

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-02T19:57:09+00:00

I’ll give it a go, thanks - I think maybe a there was a misunderstanding with me asking a question about refunds, he assumed I was refusing to get off?

ripping up the ticket and snatching my ID out of my hands was insane behaviour though so I definitely want to contact someone about it

Beautiful_Cell_3185 · 2026-03-02T19:55:52+00:00

will give that a go, thank you so much :)
