I remember I struggled staying awake for 8 hours straight in my first month as a cadet lol. Seems so long ago.

A mate of mine is at Macquarie and he also seems to never leave. Ive heard from multiple people that Mq is like that - they reckon average turnover is about two years on average.
I'm glad he's not alone.

He's a bit of a nutter though. Through undergraduate he worked 3 jobs and had a HD average. I'm fairly sure he didn't sleep also. Nice guy, lives for work through.

The first weeks at work were the worst.
My school hours were 8.15 to 2.30 and I was suddenly doing 5 days 8.30 to 5 plus uni til 10pm on for of those evenings. Didn't work out well for me.

Staying awake wasn't hard for me, not going insane was another problem.

I've been getting a fair few private messages lately - I'd encourage anyone to post questions here rather than privately (if they're general) as I'm sure a lot of people will end up have the same or at least similar questions.

You should see it via their facebook/linkedin/business-related societies

Should i be concerned that i haven't been contacted in two weeks regarding the next stage of assessment (the three tests) after doing the talent screener?
or is that normal for everyone?
because as far as i know i haven't recited a rejection at this point?
should I call them or something?
