    In my experience, if they give you a deadline for it without a specific time then assuming 11:59pm is a safe bet. Other firms with earlier-in-the-day deadlines will specify these! For example I believe Cooley’s was before 12 (noon) and they said this in the WG email :)

    Bumping up the question ... has anyone here had an interview with Cooley and know what to expect/what their general vibe is? I went to a Ropes & Gray AC last week and they said on their website they value "individualism and entrepreneurialism" yet everyone was really nice, collaborative, and it...

    I'd like to report that thanks to your continued aid & support I ran to my nearest 2nd hand store and got one of those big handbags. Thank you Jessica for clarifying what's appropriate!

    I'm going to be at the AC that's on tomorrow - apparently, they give you an OK time to prepare but just be sure to get your points across in time

    Non-law applicant - resources to study key technical parts of commercial law?

    George thank you so much. You are always so consistently helpful! I actually remember you being in an online webinar event I was at in 2020 or 2021 (time means nothing now)! I'm very grateful for these resources. I am going to check them out and come back to let you know how it went after the AC!

    Non-law applicant - resources to study key technical parts of commercial law?

    Hi all, I've been struggling to find a 'easy commercial law guide for dummies' source. I am a non-law student and want to familiarise myself with how banking & finance, private equity, IP and corporate crime departments work. I don't know how intensely to self-teach this as I know they won't...

    The holy trinity (why: you, law, this firm) scrutiny... SOS ??? Anyone want to check each other's answers?

    Hi all, Got an AC coming up in a week. I've written down my answers for the "why you" "why this firm" "why commercial law" questions but would love it if someone checked over them for me to see if they're good enough (and then I won't feel like I am memorising bad answers). Don't worry, I...
