Anyone still waiting on MoFo or Debevoise post-app? It's been 3+ months since I applied so I'm assuming PFO, but has anyone heard? *Also I'm aware debevoise are already doing ACs so presumably I have missed the boat?- M777

Congrats to all the NRF spring scheme offers- did you hear back through phone or email? I was on the last AC for spring scheme (3rd February), did you all have ACs earlier than that?- M777

Not to sound like a broken record, but has anyone done Dechert vac scheme AC (either in this cycle or previous cycles) and remember how long they took to get back?- M777

Can't actually remember as I applied in November (I think)! In that case there probably wasn't- M777

Yes. They do ACs all the way through to March. If it's any consolation I did my TI in late december and haven't heard back at all (spring vac scheme), so they're likely working through applications at all stages!- M777

Very specific question but does anyone know how many vac scheme spaces NRF offer? And how many people get ACs for each scheme?- M777

This does seem an encouraging rejection, at least. I got "Unfortunately the result of your critical thinking assessment did not reach our minimum requirement to take forward to interview. Due to the volume of applications we receive unfortunately we are unable to offer any individual feedback."...- M777
