As soon as I open LinkedIn it’s always the “I’m happy to share that I have accepted a..” posts! Happy for them but also think “damn when will it be my turn!”. Need that LinkedIn validation so bad 😂😂😂😂

Feel that so hard, this is my 3rd cycle and I've been rejected twice post vac scheme (at big US firms)

Hope so! I have noticed that there are way more online tests this time round compared to previous cycles

WBD PFO... honestly after the test I kinda realised it wasn't the right firm for me.

 

[Distressed M&A]

Does anyone know when V&E will send ACs?

 

[Applicant7874652]

I recall someone saying that D&P were telling people about rejections by end of today right?

 

[Gottagetthroughthis101]

How did WBD decide who to reject based on the test..

What the helly WBD pfo, this is my best bet and I still lost it, really didn't know what did I do wrong honestly....

 

[YYmasterTC]

Has anyone heard back from Baker post-AC? They said they were getting back to us in 2 weeks + it has been 2 weeks

They told me 2nd week of feb

 

[LaDiva]

WBD PFO, shame

 

[nonlawstudent98]

Also WBD PFO. Honestly that was the most stupid test anyway

 

[hopingforamiracle]

WBD PFO..I honestly don’t get it.

 

[summersun]

WBD PFO, disappointed but at least they did not make us wait for ages..

 

[Rosie_Kitten]

Btw does anybody know if covington etc will have more AC invites at some point? Or is it unknown

As I wrote at the time - more Neuroshight than Neurosight.

I did WBD last year and it was a similar random process but with some other stupid test and no real human involvement - I wonder if they'll have something new again next year.

VWV had the same BS test, and have sent out ACs or whatever, so I marked them as PFO a while ago. I do feel it's particularly sneaky to use a pass/fail test like this and not even bother to PFO people when you get the results back.

Nervous for Morgan Lewis TI :/ can I message someone who did it for some questions?
Thanks!
