Apparently they have a semi healthy DTC intake but mostly VS. I think for DTC applicants they seem to be looking for more experience-heavy as they don’t have any application Qs. The test is automatic though so wouldn’t see it as much progress- norothrow324

just did the Mayer Brown test - quite interesting, seems that considering they ask for no application Qs and don't have a WG, they REALLY care about cultural fit. The test was essentially all about that. Interesting approach- norothrow324
