    Are we just being silly still keeping hope? The VS starts in less than 4 weeks! Surely the most likely thing is just that anyone offered an AC place is just not on this forum?

    I think I made a silly mistake. The application question for White & Case 'Please use the space below to provide details of any careers events you have attended e.g. insight days, workshops, presentations etc. These do not need to be White & Case specific.' I answered by just giving bullet...

    I am answering a question about picking a news story and the, describing effect this has on the firm's clients and the opportunities it will provide for the law firm. Is it necessary to link this back to me at all or can/should I just stick to what the question asks? @Jessica Booker I am...
