Could've sworn it was out of 4 haha, you must've been really exceptional.
Looks like the TCLA police officers are out in full force again🤓
Also that would be a poor use of an abbreviation given that SVS could apply to spring or summer. No wonder you're so against them.

passed DLA TI benchmark after interview this morning! i thought it went OK, but the 'you passed the benchmark' was in the second paragraph so it freaked me out a little 😵
Smh my inbox is quiet asf. I’ve had no updates from firms at all lmfao. I’m just sat here like:
anyone heard back on an online test yet for Fieldfisher's pathway to practice?
Dear @Andrei Radu and @Abbie Whitlock, the Debevoise application contains both of these questions:
For the first question, I would like to use a specific practice area in which the firm excels in to show why I am attracted to the firm. I have another practice area that also interests me and I can write a paragraph on for one point in the second question, but how should I go about structuring the second question considering my main practice area of interest will be mentioned and explained for the first question?
- Please explain why you have decided to pursue a career as a solicitor and what has attracted you to Debevoise? (Max 250 words)
- Please indicate if there are any preferred practice areas that interest you. (Max 250 words)

Lol didn’t realise a simple error would be so triggering. Got 3,4,4,3 literally was only replying to someone’s question keep that sarcasm elsewhere👍🏽
I'm yet to even receive an invite for the tests
I think someone mentioned on this thread a few weeks ago saying they had received a holding email and that the firm would consider the applications in January. Possibly just taking a break over Christmas 'Describe an unusual situation you have found yourself in, challenging, humorous or otherwise. (150 words)
Could anyone help me! How would you go about answering this?

Hello @Afraz Akhtar @Abbie Whitlock @Andrei Radu
Any tips on how to approach a “why this office?” question for a regional location?

Hello @FutureTraineeMaybe what an interesting question. I think regional offices usually have specific focuses/capabilities. For example, at Clyde & Co their Manchester office focused on healthcare and insurance. I’m not sure if that’s still the case so don’t quote me on that. It could be that this particular firm operates in the same way, so you would do well by angling your answer in regards to how interested you are in that particular focus/client base.
Hope this helps
