Akin Gump Training Contract
Does anyone know if Akin Gump recruit on a rolling basis for their training contracts? Also roughly when they will start reviewing applications?

Vinson & Elkins Video Interview
It's the first cycle in which they've used video interviews! V&E take a lot of interest in your competencies+whether you'd fit within the firm's culture, so it's definitely worth thinking about these two things. It's impossible to predict though (see the first sentence), so just prepare for it...- M777

PENULTIMATE AND FINAL YEARS

I was unsuccessful applying for the CC VS, but I'm gonna re-apply for a TC in September once I've made improvements to my application technique and grades. They don't look at or even consider...- M777

PENULTIMATE AND FINAL YEARS
I think Clifford Chance is the only one (although not 100% sure). They encourage third years to apply directly for TCs. I believe the answers to Q2 and Q3 are both yes.- M777

Worry not on the Kirkland front- I emailed them last week, and they said that their screening process is taking longer than usual due to an unprecedented number of applications. They confirmed that my application was still under review at that point. They aimed to get more outcomes out "within...- M777
