    yeah no for real? and their application form was so short what are they judging us on?? I think they place a lot of weight on critical thinking tests which is just 💀same for simmons -- they don't have any app questions and it's just an online test pretty much.

    For Stephenson Harwood, I swear their Spring VS deadline was like 31/01 at one point? Have they changed it to 28/02? I know that previously they had issues with their website so want to check. The closing date is too close to the Spring scheme dates so feeling unsure

    I was thinking that too 😂 like I am sure the firm has loads of AI tools the trainees use. One of the firms (CMS I think?) even has a 'time when you used AI to help with a project' type question in their form. Surely it's a good thing to be using AI as long as you aren't like getting it to...
