How long did it take people to hear back from Simmons?

Mine for the Summer VS after the test was about 3 weeks/a month from what I recall

Reed Smith VI is brutal. Ten questions, not much space to catch your breath

Ugh sorry to hear. 30 secs between questions? do you mind saying how long it took you to complete the whole VI?

 

[lllaaawww098]

Does anyone know whether there is any difference in White and Case for the spring vac scheme and the summer vac scheme? Do they take on the same amount of people or does the summer one have more places?

There’s actually not more than ten seconds between questions so watch out for that. Overall it’s one minute prep time and two minutes answers so around 35 minutes totally

Does anyone know what the deadline for completing the Hogan Lovells WG is?

They take on the same number of places I believe (25 per scheme), but it is made clear when doing the scheme that they have enough positions to hire whoever they want to- its not competitive in the same way that some vac schemes are . So just apply for the one that suits you better I think
