has anyone got any insight into the STJ test for Paul Weiss?

 

[Aspiringsolicitor01]

No I didn’t, but I’ve just got my results. My highest were personal responsibility and growth mindset and my lowest was relationship manager. Wbu?

Highest was time optimiser and growth mindset. Lowest was relationship manager as well.

Honestly does anyone know when Linklaters will respond re AC?

NRF VI invite this morning so they must be sent out in batches.

served a covington pfo with a titillating side of a feedback invite lesgo

 

[Aspiringsolicitor01]

Are there still a lot of people who applied to Addleshaw Goddard but are now waiting to hear back about being invited to a VI? I see there’s people who have progressed to AC but I’m wondering if it’s just a few fast tracked people.

Just did the PW SJT:

Top for verbal, middle for numerical but mixed feelings about the pillars-7,7,6,1 lmao. 1 being applied intellect Never scored so low for empathy/collaboration in other tests so feeling like I’ve bombed this one On the plus side, the scores are much better compared to the Reed Smith one I did a few weeks back… feeling argh!

If Paul from Paul, Weiss is watching from a distance.. I promise you I’m very friendly, collaborative and have a heart!!

Is there a VI element?

They also invited me to a general application guidance session over MS Teams? Thanks, I suppose

 

[hawkins19]

Has anyone else heard nothing from PMC?

 

[studentgrad]

Anyone heard back from Goodwin post VI?

 

[jacksollaf]

Hey, saw that it went well and congratulations for the outcome!! Wanted to ask how was the vibe of the interview? Is it relaxed or very intesive?

For me it was quite intensive, but super super enjoyable; really kind and supportive

NRF VI this morning; anyone has tips?

 

[Equity'sDarling]

FINALLY! EVERSHEDS SVS OFFER!

Congrats! When did you do the AC

 

[g.cl.2020344]

Anything from Forsters post VI? Maybe we won’t hear for a few days as the first AC is the 17th Feb

Hi, has anyone given the Dac Beachcroft vi? I would really appreciate some insight as their VI sounds very different from a VI other firms use!

Thanks in advance

Exactly in the same boat! Applied in December

Does anyone know when we the virtual ACs for Paul, Weiss will be held? Or even know when we’ll hear back following the test?

NRF VI this morning; anyone has tips?

I got the VS last year and if they have not changed it, it should be a normal teams call. Think about incorporating a new law firm in a new jurisdiction what do you need to consider. Also think about the standard questions like why the firm, why you? etc

It’s literally just one 60 second question answering why should DAC hire you.

Just luck if you get an AC from this.
