So they told you people hadn't dropped out but where they don't fill all the places they go back to people they rejected at interview? I guess that's the alternative option to what happens when other firms leaving you waiting to hear for 6 weeks?- 003

Looking at past interview questions people have been asked and there's one I don't know how would be best to answer it. Does anyone have any ideas please? 'What would you do if you knew a client had lied in order to secure a contract?'- 003

Just received an email from Reed Smith apologising for the wait and saying they have had an extremely high number of applications which they are working through as quickly as possible. Is this likely a holding email or just an update? I submitted my research questions before Christmas but I...- 003

Anyone done the Bakers VI and have any advice? Also, I hadn't heard from them at all post application and so I emailed last week to check. They'd sent the WG before and I hadn't received it, so it's worth checking with them if you've heard nothing.- 003
