    Jesus, their NQ salary will most certainly see you being broke at the end of the month.

    It’s such a shame that in our desperation to secure vacation schemes and TC’s that we often forget our own value- how much these firms would be lucky to have us. Because we forget our worth and apply en masse to these firms, they understandably create ways to siphon our applications without even...

    I did it last year and got the scheme. There’s nothing I could tell you to help you do better on it. You just have to attempt it and do your best. It was tough and you’ll need a calculator.

    People do this all the time and most contracts stipulate this. So, if you think about it, no working person would get a TC through a VS route. I have 2 friends that said nothing, took annual leave and now have the TC at SH and Latham. I think you have to do what is best for you. If you have a...

This year I did 33 apps (last yr did 2 made it to AC on both got 1) and have 3 schemes so far at Skadden, GD. 10 pending apps remaining and 20 pfo’s but only 4 post app- Cleary, JD, S&C and S&M. Most I had...

    Im reminded of a quote: “A bird in the hand is better than 2 in the bush!” Accept the HSF offer and wait to see what happens with S&M. No point in trying to rush them to make a decision- it can come across as somewhat manipulative if you think about it. You can use your HSF offer as leverage...

    Congrats!! I was supposed to have mine later today but withdrew my app because the scheme dates conflict with another scheme I already have. Remember to smile they can’t see you so you need that personality to shine through. I’ve heard it’s standard competency and motivational. Shower them with...
