Probably a silly question, but do you have any advice on volunteering opportunities?
I was thinking something like my local Citizens Advice, but wasn’t sure what else might be out there.

I do, I am in real estate finance law and have been for the past year. I was part time during second year of uni and now full time for a years placement before my final year.
Congrats, and thank you for the info super helpful!! Does anyone know if Mishcon send ACs out in batches or not?
The one question I missed... SpringCongratulations!!!
Is this for summer or spring?
Best of luck
I might be being delusional but it seems like not many have been sent out so wondering the same thing?
CRS VI!! Does anyone have any advice on passing those? I find them super stressful!
I believe last year they ran summer ACs into early April, so spring ACs will likely go into February/March.
(Disclaimer: I have a habit of jumping to conclusions 😍)
if we’ve not heard back from mishcon for spring today is it likely a PFO?

Hi everyone 😊
I’ve got a Capsticks assessment centre coming up soon and it’s my first AC, so I’m feeling quite nervous and would be really grateful for any insight from anyone who’s done it before (especially last year/recently).
From the guidance, the AC includes:
If anyone is able to share, I’d really appreciate:
Just general guidance would really help.
Thank you so much in advance!! 😊

From the guidance, the AC includes:
- Group exercise
- Written task (1h30): short report based on a case study pack
- Interview (up to 45 mins): competency + strengths-based
If anyone is able to share, I’d really appreciate:
- What the interview questions were like (themes / examples of questions)
- What the group exercise involved (e.g. prioritising, choosing between options, negotiation, discussion style etc.)
- What the written task/report was like (SWOT? recommendations? client-focused? what structure worked well?)
- Any tips on how to stand out / common mistakes to avoid
Just general guidance would really help.
Thank you so much in advance!! 😊
If this is for spring they have already been sending out VS offers but idk about summer tbh.
Yeah, off course. The work I do is through my PGDL uni but there are so many opportunities. C.A. would be a good place to start but if you are at uni they probably also have a legal advice clinic that you can volunteer through. I applied on whim to be honest but I know that there are many opportunities. LawWorks, Citizens Advice, and the Free Representation Unit (FRU) - honestly just search and find one local to you! Good luck and I am happy to answer any other questions you may haveProbably a silly question, but do you have any advice on volunteering opportunities?

I can’t stop laughing at this 😂😂Bro did a press release 🤣
(so fair lol)
