    Hi, has anyone applied to Gateley and can confirm if they have a London vacation scheme or TC intake. Their website states the salary for London but I cannot seem to find an application for it. Thank you! @Ram Sabaratnam @Jessica Booker

    Please do apply if you like the firm!! I have a friend who has gotten a training contract there (we go to warwick) but she has stellar grades in her law degree (high 2:1 or a first I’m not very sure but I think Milbank expects that from oxbridge too). There is defo a chance so take it :)

    It has been very very helpful to me (not in terms of it being an easier way to progress to the next stage but if you have a strong app and they remember you ofc it’ll help you!) but also in terms of getting very good advice not only for that particular firm but also if you want generic advice...

    Hi, I picked option 2 after considering the core values and the work the firm has done, justified it according to each part of the question they’ve asked again looking at the core values and work. (They are big on innovation so I don’t think option 1 has many advantages)

    I would assume Friday even tho it is likely to be Monday 3pm, I wouldn’t take a risk to leave it to the deadline day (considering that there is a chance a candidate may be having issues like accessing the test/tech issues on the page so they would want to contact grad rec before the last day) :)

    Yes my friend from uni is a trainee there and she is not oxbridge (we are at warwick). If you go to a top Russell group uni with good grades it’s worth a shot :)
