    has anyone else applied to fried frank's TC? if so, does anyone know what the word limit is supposed to be for the questions? The cover letter entry states a 500 word limit but there is no mention for the other 3 questions. There also isn't a maximum word entry in the boxes. I figured the best...

    @Jessica Booker Are helix/cartilage piercings in ears considered inappropriate for ACs? Would it reflect badly on me?

    Would it be okay if I simply phrased it as enquiring about the support and then emphasising the 4 hour commute each day? Do firms that advertise help with accommodation actually do so or do they only really help with travel costs as a rule?

    Would the firm consider it more acceptable if i informed that I had accepted the offer over a month before the interview invite (and that I only had a week to accept it), and that I didn't want to be disrespectful by cancelling that offer? This firm is just one of my dream firms, and I'm scared...

    @Jessica Booker Do law firms tend to see it as bad if a candidate asks to be moved to the direct tc process after an interview for a vac scheme? I have accepted an offer for a vac scheme at another firm and have moved to the interview stage at another firm that I really like. The vac scheme...
