    Does anyone have any information on Milbank's online assessment? E.g. does it have video interview questions, SJTs, numerical/verbal reasoning components etc?

    Milbank application has no questions. Just need to input grades, work experience etc. Can anyone confirm that this is the case on their end? it seems a bit unusual for there to be no questions (and, also unusually, the application form contains no SQE section). Thanks in advance!

    Hi all, I am trying to ascertain which firms compensate successful applicants for course fees they paid (i.e. GDL and SQE prep course/LPC). So far on my list I have: Skadden DLA Piper Debevoise & Plimpton; and Morrison Foerster. Does anyone know if any other firms also do so? Thanks in advance

    Hi all - I am filling out Linklater's winter vac scheme app - and they do not seem to allow me to list postgraduate studies? Is this how they operate or this is an oversight on my behalf? Thanks in advance!

    Does Linklaters review Vac scheme apps on a rolling basis? I think NO - but cannot see on their website
