09/02/06 London’s Streets Are Paved With Gold

I was just home from London last night after the Reuters Graduate Assessment Day, which all in all was a rather good experience. The view above is a test photo from my new camera phone (Sony Ericsson w800i) of Canary Wharf as viewed from the bedroom window of my hotel that Reuters put me up in for the night. I’m impressed with both the quality and the view!
The day was interesting with an introduction, psychometric tests (conceptual, numerical & syntax), building tour, individual interviews, group task and questions & answers. The staff were very friendly, open & honest and it was lovely to meet last years intake of the programme throughout the day to get feedback on the job roles they were doing after 3 months in their first placements.
We should hear within a week of our success although while I’d clearly love the opportunity a sudden realisation that allot of other very worthy candidates are in the running makes me happy to have simply made it to this stage.
