Asked about this at my AC, should be w/c 7 Julyanyone that's done the bakers AC, did grad rec clarify when we can expect to hear back or if its by calls? I have vac schemes coming up so I won't be able to access the phone argh. could anyone from today's AC clarify
nope, you're allowed unlimited time to do as much as you want,For Reed Smith, are we allowed to take a break between the SJT and the VI part? Or do both parts have to be in one seating?
I got the same email yesterday and didn’t know what to make of it. But i guess it’s just a formality and doesn’t mean anythingDid anyone get an email from slaughter asking them to send them your grades when you receive them? One of my friends did, they’re in second year and i’m a finalist but i’m getting worried about not getting it.
In my experience it’s just a standard part of their process. If you don’t have your results for that academic year when you apply, they sometimes wait for the grades before assessing your application. If you haven’t had that email they might not have gotten to your application yetSorry, by the same you mean they received the email or they didn’t? just trying to manage my expectations haha
Yes I have had my application on hold once before the AC stage at Clifford Chance last year, but subsequently received a rejection. But you never know! 🤞🤞Has anyone ever had an application on hold?
I think it's too early to assume, seems like most people that got the VI+SJT applied late May or early JuneHi all,
If I haven't received anything from Reed Smith, is it looking like a rejection? I applied 11/06
Hi everyone. How often are firms happy to extend the acceptance deadline for a TC (or even to hold the offer)? My current deadline is in the middle of my VS starting next week. Many thanks!
Thank you!I think normally firms are happy to extend the acceptance deadlines, but it depends on many factors. Some firms don’t offer extensions and so the original deadline remains. 🥲
In that case, you could accept the TC offer and if you convert the SVS into a TC, accept it and renege on the original TC offer (if the SVS firm is the firm you prefer to do your TC with). 🙂
I think the only time this wouldn’t work is if you received financial support from the TC firm for the purposes of PGDL/SQE/LPC etc. Best of luck with the upcoming SVS! 🐐
i think the general guideline is if the application page doesn't ask for grades elsewhere, include them on your cvHi all, does anyone know if CV should include all module grades? I am trying to finish my application for Dorsey, but they didn't mention whether the CV should include detailed breakdowns.
Plus is there an impact if my CV goes beyond one page? Right now mine can stay at one-page as long as I skip the detailed breakdown and only highlights the relevant optional modules.
This is very Slaughter and May. Most apps will ask for this. Unusual to have it in CV. Because it takes up much space.
