Hi Edison, I am currently a software engineering placement student. I believe that the tests may have changed since I took them last year but I think that you have done well! I personally got a similar score to yourself

Is your question in regards to standing out during the recruitment process or being outstanding if you secure the placement?

My advice for the recruitment process is to be prepared for each stage as best you can. Ie know why you want the placement and why you think you would suit the role. I would also say that the recruitment process is more about showing your future potential than where you're at now. So personally, I didn't have a strong background in coding but showed strong enthusiasm to learn.

I think there was another step in between the coding test and assessment centre where there was some questions and recorded video interviews which sounds very daunting I know

I think it is best to focus on one step at a time and not worry too much about the next step in the process
