got email yesterday immediately after applying for their simulate assessment

 

This is for APAC. I applied at the end of August, did the OIA a couple of days after, and took the JSA in mid-Sep. There was a division preference survey sent a week after the completion of the JSA, and a further update yesterday (23rd Oct) that there were still reviewing my status.

Don't think it's the benchmark email that is being mentioned in student room, but I'm also not holding much hope.

Did you hear back from them?

 

Yeah, just received an email back from them. Didn't get shortlisted for the AC (applied for S&T), but my JSA was decent enough? that they asked me if I wanted to transfer my application to another department (MO/BO role) but will have to redo another JSA. I'm not sure if I'm gonna transfer it.

They either 1) have no spots after their summer interns converted or 2) the competition is just too tough given the current job market
