V&E partner interview stage as well! If anyone has any insights into this stage from previous cycles, I'd be happy to exchange insights with other US and UK firms, including Dechert, Addleshaw Goddard, CMS, Sidley Austin, Latham & Watkins, Kirkland & Ellis, Forsters, Mills & Reeves, White & Case, etc!

Has anyone who did an AC at Latham last week heard back yet?
5 months since I applied to Gibson Dunn. The ghosting feels personal tbh. I was also ghosted last cycle too. Why review apps on a rolling basis but ignore those who apply early.
@Novaa please add them to the shaming list🥺

Hi Abbie, sorry to bother you but I wondered if you might know how best to handle this situation. IM came back to me and said they are only running one AC date for the stream I applied to. I have a situation with work that unfortunately cannot be missed. Feeling gutted that I might have to withdraw from the process. Do you know whether they might hold this against me if I decide to reapply next year?Hello!
Congratulations on the AC invite, that is fantastic news!! 🥳
I would try not to worry - this is a relatively common issue, and firms are generally very understanding as long as you let them know promptly (which you have done!). I had a similar issue when I was invited to the Reed Smith AC last cycle as I couldn't attend any of the original dates, and was able to move to a later one with no issue - as long as you are polite and flexible, it shouldn't count against you at all.
Hopefully they should come back to you with a new date soon - you have done everything right here, so try not to panic
Best of luck with the AC!
Dear all,
Im AbSoLuTeLy DeLiGhTeD to announce that Simmons & Simmons have officially been ghosting me for 100 days.
I am thrilled and motivated by their incredible work ethic, and CoLlAbOrAtIvE culture of treating applicants as a joke.. it is a level of commitment one can only aspire to achieve.
More likely to get married before they respond🤣

Hey Summer, are you able to share any insight on the video interview this year? I think it's meant to be one question on Willo! Any insight would be amazing, and good luck
I just had my WBD phone interview. It went well and I'm feeling confident!
Here are a few behind-the-scenes facts for those who might be interested:
WBD received about 2000 applications for the DTC. 100 were invited for phone interviews. The assessment centre will be virtual to increase accessibility.

Hey I think this is selective! Have you completed this yet? Any insights would be super appreciated, and good luck
So that’s 5 months waiting…. You were also ghosted in the last cycle. Ok, so they’re a repeat offender. You also applied early…. Gibson Dunn, welcome to the 2025/2026 logbook of shame.
If you give Afuturetrainee an offer, I’ll remove you for now.
