    Anyone had any offers or rejections from freshfields this week? With the easter break starting its going to be almost 6/7 weeks from AC, still haven't heard anything at all :(

    What is PFO? Someone was rejected last week. That is why my hope levels have gone down. Cuz they have probably selected whom they want by now. Can somebody tell if any law firm has offered TCs after 5 weeks from AC, or is it most likely rejection?

    This is too long now. Completely frustrating 6 weeks for a reply is draining.

    Has anyone got a rejection from Freshfields yet? I have seen like 10 offers in this forum itself. If they are only giving out the offers then I believe it seems to be over for most of us who are waiting for over a month after the AC. Seems like FF is giving out their offers as and when they...

    Congratulations on the offer. Who has called you? Was it the partner? If so was it for the partner who did the first interview or analytical interview?

    Hi, you did the AC in Feb 28th? I haven’t heard either. Its too long now.

    Yeah they might be. But offers have already started coming in. It doesn’t feel right that someone who did the interview one month ago hasn’t heard anything.

    I Thank you also much for such detailed explanation. I am just hoping for a miracle. Early next week i am expecting something cuz now it is almost a month.

    Okay thank you very much for the detailed explanation. Chances look way more slimmer now. Somewhere between 12-25%. My interview wasn’t the greatest, so I am not going to get my hopes high.

    Yeah true. But i wanted to assume worst case scenario. But i still don’t understand why it has to be 20 spots? Because I understand there will be summer intake. But then again if it is 50% then there will be 40 spots. Don’t vacation schemers fall into the same category as Direct TC applicants...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)

    Okay that makes sense but i thought even vacation schemers will be interviewed post vacation scheme like direct training contract applicants? So wouldn’t they be included in the 168 interviewed. What is the summer application route btw? Do you have any links to check it out?
