    I think they send WG in batches - but I don’t think there’s a specific timeline they follow. It could be taking longer due to an increase of applications ?

    They didn't mention anything like that, however, I would recommend preparing something for it in case it pops up. Prepare for how a news story might effect them or a client. You can never be too prepared. Good Luck !

    Hey, so unfortunately I got a PFO from Ashurst but I did go to an Ashurst in Action event. So you'll have two interviews, one for the WVS and one for the TC after completing the WVS. Interview 1 for WVS - Competency/behavioural questions and scenarios. Questions like tell us a time etc...

    I’m in the same boat, I think the reality is that they would have surely gotten back to us by now having seen people get AC’s and interviews!
