Anyone heard from Pinsents London vac scheme post tests?

 

[therealellewoods]

Do Barker McKeznie recruit meaningfully from their direct TCs?

 

[jhaines]

Mine is for Bristol, applied on the 13th Jan for direct TC

You’ll get an email from GR with a bit more information - I got one today although for direct TC and my AC slot is next week. Check your junk as mine ended up there!

Can anyone shed light on whether interviews would be the next stage?

Hey when did you apply and when did you get the tests? Do they send in batches

I applied on the deadline and received the tests 26th - and I don't know sorry!

Those who have done the Weil AC. How long did it take to hear back?

 

[ofm]

How do you answer 'why should we give you a place on the vacation scheme' - especially for somewhere I already work?

I don't know how much emphasis I should put on my experience at the firm or whether they will take that the wrong way - should I talk more about my personal attributes?

Any help much appreciated! Thank you!

@Jessica Booker - thank you!

CMS AC!! 😁Definitely thought I was getting a PFO considering I did my VI way back in November

Me too!!

 

[Zubin]

Shearman & Sterling interview! Any help would be appreciated 🥳

Awesome! Was this for the summer VS?

 

[aspiringsolicitor98]

I just wish Links would send me a PFO already so I can move on completely

 

[Han.louise]

Anyone heard back from Eversheds for the Cardiff Office?

 

[fruiterloopers]

They gave you a response on whether you’re invited to the AC 15 minutes after the test?

Yeah, I think it might be automatic

 

[ImTheBoss]

I secured a vacation scheme finally, however am still not relaxed for some reason. Does anyone know the average TC offer rate from vac schemes.
Endless haha

Quite literally understand the nervous feeling...
are there any tips apart from Aspiring Solicitors Head start scheme on how to prepare for a vacation scheme.
Feel slightly worried cause I have no idea what type of tasks I will be doing and how to sell myself

Kennedys VI anyone?

 

[Law2022]

Praying we all hear back from Skadden tomorrow⭐️⭐️🙏🙏⭐️🙏

 

[Zubin]

Anyone have an idea of by what date all candidates will hear back post-VI from bakers? Seeing some people hear back and it’s making me nervous 😭
