    Hiya. Me again. I've had a look, and I genuinely don't think there is a limit. I think anything over 300 words is a bit much, but I did about 300 for the first question; just under 200 for the second; and about 220 for the third, yet still got to the first stage interview, I think it's more to...

    I'm sorry to hear this. It is genuinely so exhausting. I'm graduating soon and have no idea what to do. I am seriously losing hope and resilience and may just pivot to applying to another job with transferrable skills at this point.

    Mishcon got back to everyone for VIs for Summer VS in mid Feb and will get back to everyone who did their VIs sometime this month, if that's helpful to you.

    I don't know. It could be that we're in the 'amber' pile, i.e. the reserve list in case those offered ACs do not accept. I don't know about Travers, but a lot of firms will have people they definitely don't want (red), people they definitely do want (green) and people in limbo (amber) who...

    No, they're still doing them. Travers gives VS AC invites mid-Feb to early March so don't panic until then.
