    Linklaters pfo as well. :( I haven’t managed to secure a vacation scheme for this year. Is there anything I can do in the summer to get experience? Is it worth emailing some smaller firms for experience or should I do some online virtual experiences?

    CMS pfo today😭 not feeling the love. I have Links and Irwin Mitchell left and don’t have high hopes as I thought CMS was my best application so far

    I emailed CMS to see if they still do ACs for the Bristol Academy and they said they’re still looking through applications but I don’t have a lot of hope, has anyone received an AC from them recently?

    Is it worth emailing CMS to ask whether they are still giving out ACs? I did my VI two weeks ago and apparently it’s been reviewed but haven’t heard anything

    How long did everyone wait to hear from CMS after their VI? My portal says the interview has been reviewed and now I’m stressing
