1. Apply to less popular locations within the UK and less popular/desirable service lines. 2. If you are flexible with location, apply to Ireland also. Big 4 in Ireland does not require all these SJTs and the process is more straightforward. The system is separate so you can apply in both Ireland and the UK in the same academic year/six month period. There is very high demand in Ireland currently for accounting and finance professionals. 3. Apply to Big 4 in the Channel Islands. It is not difficult to get in. Not a bad place to get your career started if you are dead set on Big 4. You can also apply to the Channel Islands branches in the same period as applying to UK

Thanks, Matt. Very insightful. Any thoughts about Deloitte's virtual Assessment Centre? Please :)
Hi - I've not heard too much about the virtual assessment centres to be honest! Is that what they are doing? Lots on candidates on the same Zoom call?
How did you prep for the case study? And what team of CF have you been interviewing with? Thanks
