    Long shot but anyone doing/that's done the 2nd stage Morgan Lewis interview -- is it really competency Qs only??? seems too chill for a second stage... I am scared the partner will ask technical questions/commercial law q's and I'll have foolishly just prepped how to sell myself/my experience...

    holy shizz!!! Morgan Lewis second stage. But I'm outside the UK taking care of my mom post-OP and the interview for the VS is in person during this time, so I think I'm going to have to let it go :^((

    Just did the Morgan Lewis phone interview, not too bad, super friendly recruitment which is the best thing to find on the other end of the phone! She was 7 mins late though which made me really nervous I had clicked the wrong Teams link ahahah

    Ask Willkie Farr & Gallagher Anything!

    Hi there! Thanks for your valuable feedback in advance :) I am currently on a months-long hiking and farm volunteer trip around South America. I'm from this continent but haven't previously had the chance to connect with the region, nor have I had a gap year ever... it's been about 4 months...

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Can a mitigating circumstance be having to defend my houseshare of 7 against our landlord, who was not awarding us warm water, working gas, nor wanted to remove black mould from our house? I spend a considerable amount of time (months during my PDGL) dealing with the estate agents and trying to...

    Self-funded PGDL, got 0.75 points off a distinction. Am I screwed?

    I anticipate some comments saying I should be proud of myself for getting a 69.25 on the PDGL, but I feel like that's a bit condescending given that so many people get distinctions. I know for a fact that I was undergoing some personal circumstances (like facing a potential eviction notice)...

    Do many firms take direct TC applications?

    Also wanting to know this as I've read elsewhere in this forum that direct TC applies mostly to penultimate/final year law undergrad students... :(

    PGDL at BPP - Reading List

    Ah, BPP... not only was there a huge data breach whilst I was studying there which shut down all online resources for a couple of my peers, but one of them had to retake all of her exams because she was shut out of the system and not allowed in (she was a 42 year old career changer, so I can't...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

    Hi all! I've seen a comment from 2021 about this so I'm asking the follow up question here for fresher info: for the direct TC route, is it true that firms 'prioritise' penultimate/final year law students? I just finished the BPP PGDL, graduation in May... was looking to do a mix of TC/VS...

    a lil confused - the application portal for IM isn't really asking me to answer any questions? literally just personal info then straight to the competency Qs? did I miss something?

    Premium Academy - An Eight Week Virtual Programme

    My tip is to be yourself in your application. Don't say you're passionate about Private Equity if you have no idea what work there is in P.E, don't say you would die to represent a Venture Capitalist firm because you think that's going to put you at an advantage, etc. They (the Firm) want to...
