I wouldn’t worry about this. It’s not who you pick it, it’s how you describe them as being interesting people to talk with and you have done this.Hey all, new to this, but absolutely stressing out after an AC question I had today.
I was asked if I could invite someone famous to a dinner party, who would I choose to invite. I panicked as had no clue, so said Jurgen Klopp (the Liverpool manager). I backed it up by wanting to know how he's inspired huge comebacks/motivates players from setbacks/resilience and would want to know how he came to a difficult decision to walk away from something he loves. I tried to link this to a law firm and said you'd face setbacks as a trainee and hard choices.
The interviewer didn't really react much but worried it's an immature/unsophisticated answer. Feel I've blown it from what is effectively an arbitrary question.
If they are doing harmful things to the company they are likely to be in breach of contract and would be investigated/disciplined because of that. You wouldn’t really have to consider any other way if there was clear evidence of the harming the company.What are some ways to make an employee leave? And deal with an employee who is doing harmful stuff to the company?
I can think of going over their contract and see if they can be fired and giving them garden leave. But I think there could be more ways/steps that I could take.
Would appreciate help or input
It is really hard to tell unfortunately but unless you have not received a formal rejection, it means you are still under consideration so I would not look too much into this as they are probably extremely busy with assessment centres.@axelbeugre @Jessica Booker a couple of us on the forum did an AC with W&C last week and they said they would be in touch by the end of last week or early this week and so far only one person has heard back with an offer and no one else has heard either with an offer or rejection. Is this a bad sign that their response is now out of their quoted period? Some insight on this would be appreciated.
hey, how did you hear back? and when did you do your interview if you don't mind me asking xManaged to buss a Willkie VS offer🙏🏿
Congrats!!! While not for Freshfields, I accepted a place at a firm for a SVS that had never mentioned extra funding or anything for housing, etc. and I emailed them (because I don’t even live in London and it’s expensive in the middle of June😭) about it, and they straight away offered to pay for a hotel for me! Can never hurt asking given they know how expensive it can be!Freshfields VS offer!!!!! I’m still in denial, I need to look at the email about 15 times a day to make sure it’s not a prank.
I have a question: Has anyone heard of a case with Freshfields or even another firm providing or paying for accommodation? I live in London currently but in student accommodation and I will not have accommodation over the course of the programme.
