    2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion

    12 apps , 2 video interviews, countless watson glasers and SJTs later and I've been offered a Vacation scheme with Morrison & Foerster (MoFo)! 😅 I'm so excited!

    I'm slightly confused, are you not supposed to sign off letters with 'Kind regards'?

    Baker McKenzie rejection! Quite gutted because it really was one of my favourite firms, but this is my first proper application season so perhaps better to show some humility and take it on the chin. Honestly quite relieved cause waiting for a response was killing me! Anyway, all the best for...

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Hi @Jessica Booker, I'm doing a video interview soon and I was planning on doing it at a desk in my bedroom. This is the quietest room in my house, but my bed is in the background. Will this come across as unprofessional? Thank you

    Linklaters 2019/20 Application

    Are Linklaters sending out rejections by email, or should I be checking my portal?
