first of all congratulations that's so amazing! I bet they could've just felt how amazing a fit you were and you're going to shine at the AC too, im so happy for you!!
I had quick turnaround - 2 days for offer
No one has shared that they have an offer yet but if last year is any indication some probably do and will be able to share soon. There would also be more decisions sent out potentially next week if things play out how they did last year!
Stay strong Bob. I had 40+ PFO's last cycle with a grand total of 0 AC's. Sidley also PFO'd me this, and last, cycle. I reflected, improved, and now have managed to snag a few vacs. Persevere, reflect, review, and seek guidance from friends & other people. Am happy to share my advice if you think it might be helpful. Keep going!
Have heard they received a record amount of apps this year. The GR team is small, and not many trainees available to mark the WE; so long waits not unusual.
Suspect these firms will have placed our apps into a 'middle pile'/waitlist. If 'stronger' candidates falter at the later stages and GR needs to fill slots, they'll tap the middle pile. Heard this at an open day (forgot which firm), and would not be surprised if a number of firms use a similar system. My GD app's been AWOL since October!
Thank you! Yep, it was post AC, and I did mine in the final week of AC’s which was W/C 23rd Feb
Don't overthink the analysis. Interviewers know you are not experienced, and are not expecting high-level, complex analysis from you. Rather, clear communication, resilience, and the ability to stand your ground & respond in a positive way to the interviewer's nudges way more important.any last minute tips for my ac tomorrow would be super appreciated, so nervous!!- esp on how to approach a cast study!!
"Is the training here going to be better than at Davis & Main'?"
