Brabners AC!!! Honestly in shock

Has anyone actually gotten (or heard of anyone getting) an AC for HL DTC yet? Trying to work out whether no news is good news or whether to just accept an imminent rejection

80-85% of TCs go to VSers. Worth managing expectations with HL, honestly. So probably small numbers of ACs. Not one posted on here yet. No news is no news, however.

Anyone hear from Baker McKenzie/Ashurst/Faegre since yesterday?

Got a PFO from Baker McKenzie last week. Still waiting on Ashurst but I don't believe anyone has received a response from them yet.

Thank you! Sorry about the BM PFO, hoping for good news from Ashurst for you

Anyone know when to expect to hear back from GT post interviews

Have you heard anything since submitting Faegre at all?

“Assessment centres will commence in May and June and applications may re-open in Summer… “

Where did you see this? Not in any of my confirmation emails

does anyone have any insights on Hill Dickinson's AC? Also does anyone know what the candidate 1-1 part is going to be like?

 

[desperateTCseeker1998]

Also how did people do on Mayer Brown tests? All above average for me but last year I had 4/5 above average and 1 average and got rejected… you only get top strengths and not weaknesses for SST so hard to assess

Congratulations, when did you find out?

Hey guys, this may not be the appropriate forum for this, but has anyone heard back from Linklaters regarding their international arbitration internship?

Hi everyone! Has anyone heard back from Hogan Lovells after completing the WG?

 

[Naskimovski]

Hi everyone! Has anyone heard back from Baker Mckenzie ? I haven't gotten an invitation to complete their online assessment

 

[AnAnonymousDuck]

has anyone else applied to fried frank's TC? if so, does anyone know what the word limit is supposed to be for the questions? The cover letter entry states a 500 word limit but there is no mention for the other 3 questions. There also isn't a maximum word entry in the boxes. I figured the best is just to go for the standard 300 limit but does anyone have any further insight?
