now freshfields has gotten me sweating
Cause last year my app was awful and still got through. I don't know, maybe they haven't read my app yet. In terms of AI, I guess it probably does some basic checks before flagging the app to grad rec.I am not too sure. But why do you think you wouldn’t get through if they use AI?
Maybe yeah. I feel you though I genuinely thought my app was good enough to get a WG this year.Cause last year my app was awful and still got through. I don't know, maybe they haven't read my app yet. In terms of AI, I guess it probably does some basic checks before flagging the app to grad rec.
My sister got a job in investment banking and grad rec told her that they used AI to filter out more than 20,000 apps. Basically AI looks for terminology in the app that grad rec outlines in the recruitment page (like key skills etc.). I am not entirely sure if law firms do this, but wouldn't be surprised if they do.
SameFF PFO
it came just two mins ago! almost like they read my last post and decided to put me out of misery 😂What time did you guys get it?
I am yet to get a PFO or WG... maybe they saw my message and had a change of heart? 🤣

I can report they did not have a change of heart instead they lead me on and gave me a PFO at 15:31 🤣 🤣 🤣What time did you guys get it?

I know how you feel! My grades this year are much better and I haven’t gotten past the app stage yet. I only have W&C and Travers left so not too hopeful.I don’t get it… I got an AC with FF 2 years ago and got the WG last year but I didn’t even make it past the application stage this round?? I feel like my grades have gotten significantly stronger as I’ve graduated with first from a RG Uni since I first applied and I have more legal experience… at this point, idk what I’m doing wrong as I haven’t gotten past a single application stage this cycle. I would usually be hopeful but damn this cycle has been tough
That's literally what I am talking about. Looks like a lottery system tbh. It's frustrating not knowing the reason either. Probably the app was read quickly or not read at all.I don’t get it… I got an AC with FF 2 years ago and got the WG last year but I didn’t even make it past the application stage this round??

Same boat, got through to AC last year, encouraged to apply again in the feedback call. Then PFO'd followin WG.I don’t get it… I got an AC with FF 2 years ago and got the WG last year but I didn’t even make it past the application stage this round??
