    White & Case Assessment Centre

    I did the W&C AC last week. I can imagine they have used the same topic this year for everyone so I won't go into too much detail as the AC process is still ongoing, but it was very topical (i.e. impact of covid on specific industries). Regardless of topic though, the most important thing is to...

    Did my VI interview for White & Case on the 10th March (thought I completely bombed it) and didn’t get an email back so assumed I was rejected. By chance I logged in this evening and saw an interview invite sent TWO WEEKS AGO on the 12th. Completely panicking now 🙃🙃

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Thanks for the reply. I suppose my main concern was that if I apply for TCs this summer before completing my vac scheme, I won't have any tangible legal experience to put on TC applications. With this in mind, would it be worth mentioning on TC applications that I have an incoming vac scheme at XYZ?

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Hi Jessica, was wondering how viable you think it would be for me to apply directly to TCs this summer without any legal experience (other than a few InsideSherpa virtual schemes)? I graduated last year in a non-law degree from a top Russell Group uni and have been working in another commercial...

    Should I be applying for vac schemes or training contracts?

    So I graduated from uni this summer in a non-law humanities degree and started working in a consulting firm last month. Very quickly realising that consulting isn’t for me and that I'd be more suited to law, but having already graduated/started work, I'm not sure whether I should be applying to...
