    Finally received the Links Summer VS PFO. That’s me done with this recruitment cycle, thanks so much for all your help everyone. You’ve been the best part of this process ❤️

    I was in the same position last year. I managed to get on two insight programmes, did some online virtual internships and also did an internship in a completely different field (which still offered great professional experience)

    Nope, I didn’t ask them and I’m not sure if it’s worth asking now in any case?

    Ok I’ve been wondering this: I’ve seen CC secure talent quickly by offering TCs, font Freshfields also want to lock down talent asap?

    This was honestly the worst part for me! I had to wait 16 days (which isn’t that long but they stretched out omg) Good luck!

    I’m doing DLA’s vac scheme this summer and having worked with them in the past (through their insight programme, for example) I would say they invest quite a lot in training and supporting interns. I’ve heard great things about their vac scheme and I’m really looking forward to it

    I haven’t been invited and was wondering if anyone had been or if they’d already done one. Sorry, if this was phrased confusingly.

    Is Linklaters normally this brutal with ghosting? 😂 I think last year I got a PFO pretty quickly but I’m not sure if that was an exceptional year

    I realise this is my anxiety speaking but I’ve now signed a TC contract, they can’t change their minds and revoke it, can they? 😂
