    I got that email and then refreshed the portal weeks later to my app being declined/withdrawn so PFO - saw they offered a lot of places to VS early on so unsure if this may impact direct TC apps

    For anyone experiencing issues with Fieldfisher; I emailed the early careers email but I’m unsure whether this is the correct address to contact, did anyone receive a reply from a different email / has anyone heard about progress regarding direct TC apps, Manchester in particular?
