I saw that some individuals received PFOs after the WG from HL. However, I'm unaware of the timeline on this.
Yeah I got a PFO from them. Few weeks after though, so they might be reviewing results in batches.
have yall heard from RPC, I heard some people got rejected, but i haven't heard anything from them. Should I assume a PFO ???
Damn. That was quick, thought they were taking their time to review by mid-September.K&L Gates pfo
Me too!
Last two days:
Edwin Coe PFO
Sinclair Gibson PFO (twice, for some reason)
Birketts PFO
Boodle Hatfield PFO (they already PFOed my VS, so I'd already marked them off)
Paul Hastings have a "we won't even bother telling me you to PFO" policy, although maybe they've not actually got to that stage yet; not hopeful at all anyway.
Just left with Walker Morris in effect, but basically my application season is over, failed
.
Hey guys did anyone else also get an arctic shores assessment request from NRF, but didn’t apply? I just got one and I’m not sure what to do.
Yes just got one too. Had no memory of ever applying there thought I was going crazy 😭
Hi,
I did their AC last cycle so feel free to message me if you have any questions.
Disclaimer - I did get a rejection and conflicting feedback.
And just like that… the 24/25 TC application season is basically a wrap from an application deadline point of view.
Well done to everyone who’s made it through! Whether you smashed out applications early, sent one in at 11:59pm at night, or somewhere in between.
This process is tough (and was a super learning curve for me), and you’ve shown up, put in the work, and given yourself a shot. Thanks for the friendly banter here, and it was lovely to see people helping each other out.
Good luck to those still waiting on news!
And for anyone already thinking about the next cycle (like my sorry butt), may your future self thank you for the work you’ve put in this year. Here’s to good offers, better luck, and much future success. 🍀

Hiya, how did you find the proofreading task? Any tips of advice on this task and the application process is general would be amazing, I'm hoping to apply to this firm. Looking forward to hearing from you soon!!
My rejection email said they had filled all spots with the vacation schemes so the ACs for DTC aren’t going ahead.
