    Latham & Wakins Open Day 2023-4

    I applied on the 11th Sept, completed assessments last week and heard back this afternoon. A tad gutted but hoping it doesn’t necessarily mean curtains for the VS. Will have another go and hopefully come back stronger!

    So much respect for everyone on this thread. Honestly don’t know how you all do it. Yesterday was one of those days. Two PFOs, busy all day but felt like nothing achieved, dealing with difficult individuals for the renovations… As someone just coming to terms with being neurodiverse and pushing...

    Morning comrades. So I appear to have got over checking my emails every 90 seconds to see if I’ve heard back from any firms post app. Phew! But I’m now on checking to see if I get an outcome following the WG I did last night 🙈 That was intense. I had never done one before so spent all day...

    Ok, so Watson and I are not friends. Just when I think I’m getting the knack he goes and switches tactic. If there’s anything in this process that’ll be my undoing more than anything else, it’s this fella. If you could all channel your inner-Aretha Franklin and ‘say a little prayer’ for me, I’d...

    Oh yikes. Akin WG came through last night at gone 6:30, to be completed by midnight tomorrow. Only trouble is I was so convinced I’d never get past application stage, I’ve never practised 🤦‍♀️ Please help 🤣🍷

    Not at all. I understand completely. I’ve wanted to be a lawyer as long as I can remember. At 34 I’m still trying to get there. Believe me, I understand more than most what it’s like to feel embarrassed, undeserving or unworthy, especially when I stand in a room with my husband at some event...

    Never be embarrassed about who you are or what you do. Think of yourself as a tapestry made up of millions of tiny components. Every one of your fellow students is also a tapestry but you are all completely different to one another in thousands of ways. Every single one will have bits missing...

    That’s fantastic, massive well done 🤩 I applied on the 3rd so not looking hopeful. This is my first round of applications and I think, having just done the Ropes&Gray training sesh, I’ve fluffed them all 🤣 ah well, practice run to learn all my lessons in preparation for the real thing next time...
