I applied for winter and they sent me an email saying that they were impressed with my application and would reconsider for Spring - but just received an email now with rejection. I guess they're clearing out all the remaining apps from winter to be ready for Spring?

congrats!

Thank you!

CMS AC invite and AG VI completed in the same day! Just need a PFO now from a firm to complete the set and bring me back to reality

PWC PFO I am terrible at games based assessments, they feel so arbitrary!

Yep, sounds like it. It's a tough firm to get into. Don't be disheartened. Where else you applying to? Any other US outfits?

Thank you, I applied on the 30th of December!

I completed my CMS WG over a month ago and havent had a rejection or VI.
Anyone in the same boat?

Anyone who is attending a CMS AC, did you get all the date options as it is only allowing me to choose one date? Is this because the others are full?

ngl i’m getting really nervy about my HSF summer vac scheme… it was the top firm i was gunning for and i’ve seen a lot of PFOs going around… have not received one but have also not gotten an AC invite and i’ve seen some people getting it could it be because i applied a day before the deadline lol

HSF isn't rolling- they told us at an open day they don't even know when applications were sent in when they review them. I haven't heard back either but I wouldn't overthink it until you get an answer (impossible to do I know!) Good luck.

Hey! When did you apply to Akin?
