I need help!!! What can I improve in my application to be able to get an interview at least?! Is it because of my Casper you think? looks like Casper is much more important than the 20%... or is it because there was a gap between my graduate studies and application? maybe I had to submit an EC letter to explain the gap...

andih022 Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 2 hours ago, Laly20 said: oui !! tu es invitée, ça ressemble à quoi ton profil ? Hello @Laly20, Je te remercie d'avoir pu me répondre car j'avais un doute. Alors mon profil n'est justement pas top top comparativement aux autres. That's why I was so confused, à moins que j'ai une forte tendance à me sous-estimer peut-être. Mais si tu veux plus de détails, je peux l'afficher sans souci . Et toi, as-tu pu appliquer cette année? Si oui, as-tu eu une invitation? Je cherche des gens avec qui commencer à me pratiquer, pour former un groupe de 3 (rotation avec l'interviewer, l'interviewé et l'observateur). Also, @The Doctor I just saw your post on the discord app. If you still looking for people to practice I am down . Have a nice day u all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel you it's so hard to figure out where you need to improve since they don't breakdown your stats like they did in previous years. In my opinion, you have great ECs but your casper might hold you back. You should be proud of yourself, rooting for you ! By the way, me too, I'll take any suggestions. Anyone wants to go over my application or CV ? I would really appreciate. At this point, I feel so clueless on what they're looking for.
