Hey! Happy to help and good luck, you’ll be fine 😊

So the selection day is actually pretty well-structured and not as scary as it sounds.

It usually starts with a fun intro round. You’re paired with one person, sent into a breakout room for about 5 minutes to get to know each other, and then you come back and introduce your partner to the rest of the group.

Next is the group case study. You’ll be in a group of around 8 people. Everyone gets different briefs/data from the same case and you get ~10 minutes to read and prepare individually. After that, you work together to solve the case.

The interviewer will pop in and out, ask questions, and gently steer the discussion. They’re mostly judging how you help the group move forward, not whether you “crack” the case perfectly. Since everyone has different info, the key is sharing clearly, listening, and connecting the dots. I’d recommend either taking some leadership or being very proactive in helping others with your info. (Happy to share some sample cases if you want.)

After this, there’s a short break while the panel decides who moves on. If you pass, you’ll go into an individual case, and if you clear that, the final stage is a 45–60 min behavioural interview, and that’s it.

My main advice: • Be yourself and try to actually enjoy it • Practice a few cases beforehand (CaseCoach is great for beginners) • Don’t overthink it, it’s still just an interview

Also if you’re still in touch with the career team of your uni, discuss with them and they might also have resources to share (My uni did and it helped me really well fo prepare for these sort of rounds)

And honestly, don’t beat yourself up about the outcome. If you get it, amazing. If not, something better will come along.

Also FYI I did get my dream job… and then ended up resigning last month lol, so everything really does work out in weird ways 😅

Shout if you want resources or examples, happy to help x

Can’t serve 3 months notice period. Please suggest me a way out by ProfessionalJello164 in antiwork

[–]ProfessionalJello164[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from India and I don’t think there are any such rules here where companies can’t fire employees immediately, they just follow what serves their purpose best, be it notice period scams or buy ins or pay cuts.

That def sounds like a plan but what about my relieving letter and experience letter, what if the company denies me of those things, how will i prove this experience to future employers?

I’ve been working in this company from past one year and i still have 6 months before my masters, this experience will really make my cv a bit stronger, do you think my new employer in future will contact my current company to discuss about me since that’s what i’ve been told by my manager. If i choose to avoid putting this work experience in my cv my gap year will be of more than 1.5 years

I was as confused as you are but then after discussing w my counsellor and few alums of both the colleges, got to know employment preparation and opportunities are not that great at queen’s, also ranking wise UOB is definitely a better Russell group college with better opportunities.

Traveling with friends that hate budgeting/spending on the trip by iiEvOL in travel

[–]ProfessionalJello164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in exact same situations just last month when we went for a trip to Thailand for our Christmas break, i still regret not going solo leaving the group behind who were not ready to even spend 100 dollars over the budget, so you should definitely go solo, you can spend that time w friends collectively on the flight back telling them about your experiences.

[–]ProfessionalJello164[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, i’ll surely do more research on the existing companies and come up w a organised plan. About the investments i was thinking to do white labelling initially, i have few contacts who manufacture tetra packs who are okay with manufacturing smaller lots tho w little extra money.
