White & Case summer vac scheme offer x

 

[ddalki]

WHITE & CASE SPRING VS!!! I originally applied for summer, but they kindly reallocated me to Spring because of an overlapping offer... Today will be a day of good news, everyone!!!

 

[anon78365222111]

does anyone have any advice for me! I was given a first stage interview by a law firm (American firm) I was told the first stage would involve competency and technicals. I’m only a midway through GDL student so I was wondering what kind of technicals could I expect. Would it be more financial ?

How much did you get

 

[AryanAgg]

How much did you get

Scored 32/40 and 72 percentile

 

[Apple]

I was given 1 days notice... it varies so much!

I feel like this is such an unreasonable request by law firms.

 

[Apple]

Congratulations! Was this right after submitting the written app? No intermediate stages?

Yep!

 

[AryanAgg]

Im curious, in proofreading exercises, how to make sense of the use of ; if youre accustomed to just using a full stop on that spot?

 

[lawstudent2]

Anyone else still not heard from ashurst post ac?
I feel like it must be a guaranteed rejection now after all the offers that came out this afternoon

 

[Diana54]

I feel like White & Case is definitely a rejection for me as the candidates that did their interview at the same time as me have received offers.

I just wish firms were kind end to just send rejection and not leave us in limbo

 

[LH4]

Congrats everyone who got offers today!!

Does anyone know what the process is for Faegre Drinker? I honestly can't find much about them - they don't have anything on Legal Cheek, and I haven't seen many people talk about it on here.

 

[strollinthepark]

does anyone know faegre drinker's app process for the vac scheme?

 

[V2002]

HIII does anyone have A&O direct TC AC insights? I would be super super grateful and I can help with loads of other firms.
