Their deadline was today so they’ll probably start getting back to people starting next week.Has anyone heard back from Al Tamimi?
Congratulations!! Is this the black one or social mobility one?Same here!!
It might be that there is not enough “you” or “why” in the answer - all of those things could be claimed by many applicants, but they want to get to the reasoning as to why you (as a unique applicant) are interested in these things or why they are important to you.How do people answer „why this firm“ in interviews?
I have had several interviews and always
received the feedback that my answer for „why this firm“ was weak / too superficial.
I usually go with three points:
- deal / practices area that interests me
- technology / innovation
- culture / CRS
Black heritage oneCongratulations!! Is this the black one or social mobility one?
Yes, someone that I know applied again last year for the TC and was put on “hold”. However, they may have changed their policy since last year, so I’d advise to check with the firm before applying.Does Sullivan Cromwell allow people to apply to both VS and TC in the same cycle?
would you mind checking your email for the results haha, dw if notthanks and they called me on friday tbh did my test so long ago forgot

Thanks @LehmanBrothersRiskManagementInternDepends on the firm's policy. Most firms don't consider you for a TC if you do not convert the VS. I'd ask the firm and clarify before applying.
Just accept it and rescind later on if you get the offer from the other firmHi guys,
Just wanted some advice on the following: I've recently received a TC offer off the back of a spring VS from a firm I really like, and the deadline for acceptance is May 31st. I also have a VS at another firm I like from June 3rd-7th. I would love the opportunity to spend time at both firms and make a decision from there, but am worried at what a firm's attitude towards me asking for an extension to acceptance would be (lack of commitment etc). Anyone have any suggestions as to what to do/how to word it? Should I just accept the offer I have given I really like the firm? Not sure if this is relevant but both TCs would be a sept 2025 start.
I emailed Latham about whether their direct TC route will be open at all this year and they said it’s very unlikely they’re going to open it…Thanks @LehmanBrothersRiskManagementIntern
I've emailed both firms but haven't received an answer yet😭😭 - If anyone knows if Weil or Latham let you reapply for a TC after not converting a VS, please help a guy out🥲
I've been advised this but a) isn't it slightly dishonest and b) I had a mate who did this and was asked about whether he'd had and accepted an offer from previous VS on his subsequent one and obviously he can't lieJust accept it and rescind later on if you get the offer from the other firm
