dla piper assessment centre rejection!
I was thinking maybe it’s because I’m 27
I have feedback in two weeks. I just feel so sad because I really vibed with the partner. He smiled continuously and said I asked super thoughtful questions and said I did well, but maybe they said this to everyone during the interview. No one from our group interview passed; we did have a dominant leader who lead the group and failed to keep the time and spoke over other people. I don’t know if it’s that, but I will wait for feedback.
It is what it is, we keep moving forward.
eh maybe this is my 5th rejection post VI of the year but can’t do anything just to keep going.
Seriously questioning if there is something wrong with me. But then I remember before this forum, I’d get no interviews at all. Since I joined on here I get interviews. I also got an interview coach, im doing the most I possibly can. I can’t do more than I am already doing. It only takes ONE YES. Now I will just ask myself “ is this really the firm for me? Do I want this? “ instead of “ will they like me? What if they don’t”
we keep pushing forward. Hang in there everyone. Better days are coming.

I love how every time I type on the Browne Jacobson written exercise text box it returns to the top of the screen so I can’t see what I’m typing and there’s typos everywhere and I just cba xxx
Why would age come into play? I graduated at 24 because of health issues which delayed my studies. Surely age shouldn’t be an issue? Please don’t lose hope btw, I know a lot of people who got TCs in their late 20s!dla piper assessment centre rejection!

Same experience and thoughts here (also a postgrad), I did dla piper's AC a month ago and got rejected right away. I knew I didn't do great in that AC though so I wasn't surprised and we also had a dominant leader during the group exercise and it was hard to get a word indla piper assessment centre rejection!

I got post-AC rejection for TLT & Walker Morris today. I really love & admire your attitude! It is highly motivating, and it does only take one yes, that is absolutely correctdla piper assessment centre rejection!

saw someone get an offer at like 9pm so im never considering the day to be over before 10pmr we giving up on slaughters getting back to us today
Withers said end of Feb and yet no news. I wonder if grad rec use a different diary…
Do you think offers are coming out in batches, and the ones that have already came out are for people who needed an answer because they had offers for multiple schemes?
When is your interview?
CRS have just posted a TikTok about do’s and don’t’s for a VI and it has spiked my anxiety (having done my VI over two weeks ago) 
hiii, any insight into the w&c written exercise would be dearly appreciated!! did you guys get a client memo, a more formal letter or something else? also, is it 75 mins or so? any other info would be suuuuper helpful (and congrats to everyone who has already gotten past this stage/gotten offers) !!
still no news either way from RPC post-AC and today's allegedly the last day they're getting back to people so I'm safe to assume it'll be a PFO after seeing people get offer calls throughout this week rip
Has anybody heard from Boodle Hatfield post application? (not sure whether to mark it as a pfo)
I honestly couldn't tell you what's going on behind the scenes but yeah the person who got the offer last week did have multiple offers so it could be that in all fairness.
