Does anyone know when Reed Smith will get back to us post questions? Their email said we aim to get back to you in 5 working days, sooo should I be expecting a response soon or will I need to hang around for a month-ish?

They aim to so it does not mean that they will. I am waiting too

Just completed the post AC day interview for the firm that can't be named, how intense does an interview get?
Oh well we will just have to wait and see. Onwards and upwards.

Didn't know Lord Voldemort ran a law firm?

Bruh still nothing from any of these firms just put me out of my misery

I think people on here have had CRS VIs/WG invites so I think we might be sunk :/

when I emailed them with a copy of my questions, they sent an email saying they will aim to reply within 5 days... did you not receive the same email? I believe it was automated.

That's just the automated email you receive from RS no matter what you email them in the first place. It won't be talking directly about your questions unfortunately.

Ah thank you for clarifying!!

Would it be safe to assume a PFO from debevoise if they haven't emailed with an AC yesterday?

Has anyone done the Simmons & Simmons tests and VI? Any tips on how to prepare would be great please

Hi! When were you invited to do the tests/VI and did you apply to the London office?

Me seeing mine is less than 25%:

All you need is for there to be 1 TC offered out on that scheme and to believe that that could be you

That’s in response to any general query, not specifically for them to read and review many sets of questions and progress people.

^ this

I know it's hard not to look at the stats/chances, but this is the advice I try to share, especially if you've already got the scheme. You can only focus on being your best self. If a firm thinks you're exceptional, they'll find room for you.
