At Osborne Clarke's AC, a senior associate told me my presentation was outstanding, one of the best they'd seen, and that I should feel proud of it —-> Fast forward a few days, and I got PFO'd – guess my presentation was so good, they thought I was too good to be a trainee🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am yet to know but one time grad rec told me that we would definitely see each other again after a final stage interview - which I took to be a good sign - and then I received a rejection two days later :)
I was also told 'I look forward to seeing you around the corridors' by a senior associate and then didn't get the VS 😊 Something else at the AC must have massively let me down ahaha

Those that have heard back from Bakers, what was your SJT feedback like? I apparently excelled in applied verbal intellect but every other trait seemed average. I'm just wondering how this compares with others.
