I think their process after the app is WG -> AC or interview -> VS. I’m sure Orrick is the same too.

Hey, I do! Does anyone have any info on the format this year? Their website says commercial research and presentation but the interview slot is only 45min long and they didn't provide any more details in the email.

It might be they take 12 to 15 on the scheme but shortlist 6 to 8 for a post VS interview? I believe some firms with smaller intakes do that but idk for sure cos I didn’t end up applying to Winston.
I sweeeear the most tiresome part of submitting applications is proofreading the same damn text for the 100th time. As if an extra letter or word will magically appear, I’m just not trusting myself. After a while, your own sentences stop making sense too - it sounds absurd reading them out as if they’re gibberish.
everyone talking about being done meanwhile I just submitted 4 apps and I am already planning on applying for paralegal jobs

Vantage after freezing up before the deadline for the nth time
Also I find it hilarious that Orrick’s Get Hired page on Chambers mentions that a “2.1 isn’t a deal breaker” HAHAHA excuse me?? I really hope it isn’t given that these are their academic requirements

out of interest, has anyone here ever done a mini-pupillage?
If Vantage has a million haters I’m one of them. If Vantage has 1000 haters I’m one of them. If Vantage has 1 hater it’s me. If Vantage has 0 haters it means I have left this world. If the world is against Vantage I am with the world, if the world is for Vantage, I am against the world

Speaking of this, I saw someone with a first in LLB from Trinity Oxford selling application coaching on LinkedIn. Also has a training contract at a US firm, and got around 7 VS last year.... Anyway yeah for only £50/hour you can be coached on this.
And I'm thinking "you know the law prizes and having the best possible law degree from the best possible college at the best possible university might just be a key to your success as much as your leet application skills".
Some partner from Kirkland commented and was like "so, to clarify are you doing this for free, I'd love to help if so", and the reply was like "nooooooo, you must payyyyyyy".
I think so tbh. It was worth a try though. I also did their open day so a bit hopeful that my academics will be fine.Ngl a quick scan on LinkedIn shows majority of their current and future trainees graduated with a 1st from Oxbridge/UCL/LSE/Durham…
It seems those of us who don’t fit into this mould will get an automatic PFO. They also want us to have legal experience of some kind lmao.
