    They’re still sending out invites then. I can understand people’s confusion here. What the app says after applying: “The Graduate Recruitment Team will be in touch with an update on your application after the deadline closes.” I feel like people heard before…

    Yeah that’s the firm I meant. Still, there’s always next year. It’s hard to apply to everywhere.

    I wish AP advertised more TBH. Had no idea about their DTC. Went for the VS route instead.

    I got multiple 2.2s in Finals. I still got their telephone interview. This was for the Vac Scheme.

    I submitted mine soon after opening. I don't think it hugely matters. I'd focus on other apps now.

    Nothing from Macfarlanes, Reed Smith, W&C. Only RS's deadline has passed though. Many have heard from RS though. But they only closed on 20/6.

    This is very Slaughter and May. Most apps will ask for this. Unusual to have it in CV. Because it takes up much space. Best of luck with your applications.

    Missing full stop in an application? Am I doomed to get rejected? This cycle has been totally exhausting. 40 apps submitted since August 1st. I am giving up this year. Just don’t have any motivation left.

    How many TCs do you need? I'd say just go for it. Obviously other firms could be priorities. Paul Hastings, White & Case etc. But if you like them apply.
