Has anyone heard from Willkie? It's rolling right?

For DLA Piper, would we be okay not to include our A-levels on our CV if they are just going to do the Rare CRS anyway? Just to save space. Or would it be wise to include them

Is Latham rolling for their open days? I couldn’t find it on their website and grad rec is replying slow

I went to their webinar yesterday and they said that they don't make any decisions on a rolling basis

Thank you so much!

If you don’t mind sharing, did they say anything about what they’re looking for in terms of academics? (Beyond the usual AAB and 2.1 or above degree criteria)

not really, but it's not as if you can really do anything about the stats that you have so i wouldn't think about it too much

Oh for sure, it's more for gathering data on academic requirements, as some firms seem to have introduced a minimum 2.1 across modules criteria - want to save my time applying for those

DLA have introduced AAB requirements for A-Levels, so I assume they're expecting us to put them on our CV.
