    Does the covington application on Allhires close at 11:59pm on 11th Jan, or at 11:59pm on 12th Jan? Slightly confused as it only says that the deadline is on the 12 Jan on the website and on Allhires itself

    How strict are W&C on undergraduate grades? I graduated with a 64% but I have 2 modules that are 2.2 (no mitigating circumstances, just exam stress). I’m not sure if I should apply because I heard that they prefer candidates with a strong 2.1 (though this is not explicitly said on their website)

    To those who have written a Covington application this year, how did you approach the second question: 'Focusing on a particular practice group at the firm, what challenges and opportunities do you foresee over the next 12 months?'

    I wouldn't limit yourself purely because they already made offers to people! If you are keen, then there is no harm in applying :)

    nope - i applied just over a week ago and i'm still waiting for a response. Based off my experience from last year, they typically get back to you QUICKLY (no longer than a week) if they are keen to interview you/ progress you to the next stage. However, it seems like they are not acting as...

    I think a lot of people on the forum are in the same boat. Someone mentioned that they know people who are doing an AC today. not sure if this is the first AC slot but the general consensus is that no one post-VI on the forum has heard back yet. Hopefully there will be good news soon! (I’m...

    Received a VI and written exercise invite on 31/10 but haven’t heard anything since. Not sure if they’re still reviewing it though, the deadline for my VI was 11:59pm on 5/11. From what I’ve seen it seems like no one has heard back post-VI/ written exercise

    Based off last year, it seems like they will get back to candidates re AC around mid-nov? Not sure if it will also be the case this year
