When did you apply for BCLP? Have you heard back yet?

Has anyone heard back from Travers Smith for VS since they sent that update email about high volumes 3 weeks ago? Also, is anyone else still waiting post-app for Macfarlanes Spring VS??

Hey has anyone heard back from Ashurst for the direct TC application? I got an email last week saying they were still processing my application, which i thought was weird considering the fact Ashurst is rolling, and it's been close to 2 months since the deadline.

I applied back in November. Haven’t heard anything yet.

Was this for a direct TC? I think they take a lot longer

Has anyone experienced the HR interview at Stephenson Harwood? What questions should I expect to be asked?

More generally, how long should I spend answering questions such as "why law" "why this firm?" 2mins, 5mins?

It's my first time interviewing face to face and i'm unsure of how these interviews are structured. Any help would be massively appreciated! Thanks.

PM me

Has anyone heard from Weil post-AC for summer?

Has anyone heard back from Boodle Hatfield, Forsters, Fladgate or BDB Pitmans? Also, what are people's opinion on when it's okay to email the law firm to ask about when we'll hear back? Deadlines were now over a month ago

Hey NicN , how long did it take for you to hear back after your AC? Amazingly well done btw !!!

Hi Fez, thank you!! I did the AC on Friday and heard back on Monday afternoon so it was a very quick turn around for me! I think they usually take a bit longer
