Mishcon plz

 

[Jaysen]

Wow thanks Jaysen that’s amazing!!

Is there a minimum term to the offer or can we cancel whenever we wish?

If you only want to pay for a month, I recommend signing up and cancelling immediately in your account details. This way, you'll still have access to the month and it won't roll over!

Here is a link for 75% off, which is the biggest discount we've ever offered! Valid until Monday!

A little thank you for being part of our community

Where's my flowers? I hope my initiative and commercial awareness is noticed.

Hi Jaysen! I presume this is the case but just want to double check - will the discount be applied for one month only? Tyia!

 

[yasmars]

Yeah I think we're unlikely to get through to VIs now they're sending ACs out... I wish they would just send out PFOs when they decide it, it's so frustrating waiting and hoping, when they've already made their decision 😭

Ah, you’re probably right. I really hate when firms do this

Oh God, Mishcon AC!!!🥹🥹🥹

Go smash it!!! Best of luck ❤️

Yeah it’s one month

 

[Jessica Booker]

Thank you, Jessica!

Also, sorry for bombarding you with questions, but does the timing of your AC have any effect on the outcome? I have been asked to book mine and I am feeling overwhelmed with diss work atm so I am considering booking for late March as opposed to next week.

I wouldn’t know in this instance - but why not just book for late March anyway if that works best for you?

Is it weird that I've not heard back from W&C and Latham post-AC for 4 weeks+? I have emailed grad rec and the latter didn't even respond...

What did W&C say in their response? I’m also waiting to hear back post Ac from them

 

[SaLM]

Anyone have any experience with simkins? would appreciate any advice via dm or reply! 🥰

 

[AlCapone]

Has anyone heard anything from Stephenson Harwood (SH) post-VI for Spring???

Do people tend to email interviewers/hr after an interview thanking them for their time? Not something I usually do but..

Some do, many don’t. It’s highly unlikely to have an impact on the outcome whichever way you choose to go.

If we haven’t heard from Mishcon, should we presume a PFO at this stage? Really disappointed as they’re my favourite firm

 

[Givemeatcplease]

Congrats to all those with a Mishcon AC! Out of interest, is there much space left on the portal? Don’t know whether to get my hopes up or not :/

I have booked it for late March now but I was concerned about them making offers on a rolling basis and wanted to make sure I wasn't harming my chances. Probably overthinking it tbf.

Also, with regards to the CV the recruiter requested from me. I am going to keep it only 2 pages but I was wondering if I should leave out virtual online programmes (non-selective) as that information is available to the recruiter anyway (they have the application form). Could I please get your take on this? Thank you!!

 

[DieHard]

PHurst, if you get rejected for the VS will they allow an application to the TC also

 

[DieHard]

W&C Spring is filled I believe, summer I think most offers already being made but likely still some to come

 

[sm99]

Unrelated to the cycle but has anyone successfully joined pinsents vario paralegal team?? If you have, please dm me about the type of work/if it’s worth it!! Thank u 🫶🏼
