If we haven't got that email saying we will hear soon, is that a bad sign?

Why would it be a sign of anything? I wouldn't read anything into it.

Very true - I was just wondering given only some people got the email

W&C interview (post-VI) Spring VI

Congratulations! When did you apply for it!

Congratulations! When did you apply for it!

Mid November I think and thank you

Nope. Not heard anything. Although some people have received an email saying you will hear soon.


Ah. Perhaps then! I wonder how many more interviews they are doing.

GR told me that people should start to hear back for the spring scheme within the next few weeks before they move onto the summer candidates.

 

[M0723]

I applied on the deadline and went through the whole pre-Academy cycle already (WG test, VI, AC).

Which office did you apply to?

 

[Cantab_95]

GR told me that everyone should hear back for the spring scheme within the next week before they move onto the summer.

Oh cool, next week as the week after this week?

Sorry I'm not sure, she just said within the next few weeks so I assume that could be next week too.

 

[TiredPG]

Has anyone heard back from Taylor Vinters post app?

Applied Monday, heard back Wednesday with invite to Skyrise City.

Hey! Do you know if that means they've finished interviewing for summer and will make decisions after sending spring ones out?

Ah awesome, thanks. When did they tell you this?

I think they've only just started interviewing for the summer scheme, my interview was for summer

 

[Deleted member 8227]

In my interview for the summer scheme

 

[pbyrne]

Has anyone heard from Brown Rudnick?

Nothing yet! I submitted on the deadline.

Okay thanks! Just wondering because my interview was weeks ago and I know other people who have applied for summer that interviewed at a similar time.

I interviewed on 21st Jan for Summer so I think they’ve been doing summer for a while too!

 

[Andrew M]

Ugh some watson glaser tests just really suck! I usually do pretty consistently well with them but I've just completed the Hill Dickinson one and found it absolutely horrible.

 

[NA1998]

Out of interest which scheme for Bird and Bird did you apply for?

I applied to the Summer Scheme on the 19th of December and completed the video interview on the 4th of January

Really curious to know if we can re-record the VI for V&E this year - has anyone tried yet?

Hey-I thought some said you can this year but then I’ve seen posts saying people were lying about the format/questions to get others to log on first.

No one is obligated to reveal the questions but to deliberately mislead is a bit shameful really, I’m sure integrity is rather crucial to the role of a solicitor.
