@Jessica Booker
Is it worth mentioning upcoming VSs on direct TC applications or other VS schemes on the work experience section? Is it too cocky? Or unnecessary?
I received two VS offers yesterday evening - HSF and DLA 😁
One extra rejection to add to my collection lol - TwoBirds
Still waiting on Reed Smith, HL, MoFo
8ppl in my AC. Small group. At one point, the recruiters shared the odds of securing a VS, and I tried to do the maths quickly. 1/8 chance I believe for spring VS. Higher odds for summer than spring, however. Take this with a pinch of salt, yours could be different of course.
@Jessica Booker - also the wider community - In my country, it is essential that a thank you/courtesy note is sent to the interviewer after an interview. I understand this is uncommon in the UK and would not change the ultimate outcome, but it personally feels strange not to follow up, as this...
Ok, so after my doom and gloom post yesterday, I somehow received offers to DLA Piper at HSF for an AC. Less than 24 hours' notice for the HSF scheme (wtf...) - so I think I was on a waitlist and someone dropped out.
Over the moon, but now I'm so nervous about back-to-back ACs. I don't even...
Just got a Macfarlanes PFO too. So far, my PFOs are Macfarlanes, Simmons, Jones Day and Clifford Chance. Still waiting on 2Birds, Hogan Lovells, DLA and HSF - but considering they have all already sent out AC invites, I'm expecting PFOs from all of them.
At this stage, I feel like my chances...
TLDR: I was offered and accepted a Vac Scheme at my dream firm, but they have reached out to me explaining that they want to give me the option to switch streams into the direct TC recruitment stream as they are accelerating trainee recruitment. If I switch, I'll lose my Vac Scheme spot...
