    This might be a silly question, but does anyone know if firms tend to give you a plus on for events during the vac scheme e.g. the firm's big summer party? My partner will be around and I would love for him to go with me.

    Hi everyone, I also have a similar situation, where I left a volunteering position at a charity but maybe not in the best terms, would they want to contact supervisors at volunteering positions or just official jobs?

    It's a really chill and standard TI, so really know the classics 'why you', 'why Akin' and 'why law', I would have a few questions prepared to ask at the end (keeping in mind who is leading your interview - so if it's grad rec ask questions that a grad rec person could answer). With me there...
