Hi, has anyone heard back from Bakers AC?

 

[iklawapps]

Hi again everyone. Out of curiosity has anyone not received the feedback for their Macfarlanes test? It's been two days so just wondering thank you!

 

[Legallywhatever]

Not Burges Salmon having a ‘record’ number of applications for their DTC… not too hopeful on that front

Haynes and Boone, PFO.

Exactly the same! The ACs are supposed to be 9th/17th

Heard back from Browne Jacobson a few hours ago, got an AC invite!

Any news from CRS Charles Russell Speechlys? Has been a month now since my AC (and we were told to we’d hear last week post vac schemes). Getting a little worried!

Hey, have you heard back from CRS yet?

Yesterday evening around 8pm. I’ve been allocated to the 9th July AC and applied for Manchester

Anyone heard back from Reed Smith post VI?

 

[Jackbox]

I also did the final interview at Fried Frank!

Anyone heard back from Reed Smith post VI?

Do they screen the VIs on a rolling basis too? I thought it was just the application.

I got a TC offer earlier this week, which means my time on the forum comes to an end!! This has been such a great community and I’m so glad to have found it this year. I faced a lot of impostor syndrome during my 2 (and a bit?) cycles, because I have never had the highest grades / SJT scores, and wouldn’t consider myself the most commercially aware candidate etc. But all you need is that one yes. I can’t quite believe I now have it!! Keep going because all those nos will one day mean nothing. If I can do it, anyone can. Good luck everyone!

Haynes and Boone, PFO.

I’m sorry about this. Rejections happen, but it is in no way a reflection of where you are going. Please keep going, refine your strategy, take some time out, and, keep sending out those apps when you’re ready!

Thank you for sharing this. And very happy to hear that you’ve gotten some good news. Huge congratulations! I hope you celebrate well!

That’s amazing! If you have any specific questions to help you prepare, ask away….

This is great to hear! Wishing you all the best with that!
