Pretty much this.

OP, you're jumping the gun to ask about new correspondence 2 days after the submission date. I waited over 2 weeks for a response for my university job and there wouldn't have been that many applicants compared to the number UBS will receive.

Give it some time.

I applied and so did my friend. If they did reply, I would kind of be upset but then again it just probably means I wasn't the best suited for that job.
Don't worry, there are plenty more opportunities out there for other cadetships.

I wrote a fuck load. Ended up being 1000 words
Oh my goodness...I only wrote a few sentences for each question. Then again, working at a bank isn't my passion but I still think it's an excellent opportunity.
You must really want this!! How many pages did you end up printing out?

Don't really mind if I don't. Just would be awesome to do.

I didn't print much. Only the page which had the weblink. My careers advisor didn't néed it so I didn't print it.

On a word document it was two full pages.

Can't believe you only wrote a few setences for each. To be honest for each answer I wrote at least 300-400 words.

Why did you print the whole thing off? Seems so pointless

Did you end up getting a reply? My friend only wrote a few sentences for each question as well and she got in. Unfortunately I didn't but I guess it was still a good experience :).
The application said to print it out so then the principal could confirm your results or something.

I absolutely despise those SHL thing online testing things. I'm terrible at them (mainly if they ask you to solve patterns). :(

If it is one of them, you can do practice tests to get a feel of what kind of questions you can expect. http://www.shldirect.com/practice_tests.html

I used to have a bunch of other resources but I can't seem to find them at the moment.

Is it SHL?
My email said this (i took away the links and codes etc)

Thankyou you for your submitting your Application Form and School Assessment for the Business Cadetships Program. In order to be considered for the first round of interviews, you will need to complete the Competency-based Assessment by the deadline: Monday 21 May.

I tried a few and I suck.

Hopefully I can get better
