I'd say its always worth a shot submitting even if it is rolling. I submitted on the last day at a rolling firm and got to the AC stage!- thirdtimelucky

Any idea if its better applying to Macfarlanes direct TC vs VS? For context, I am a graduate and I'm not sure how much holiday I can take off work and the VS deadline is next week. Would applying for a direct TC put me at a disadvantage in comparison to those applying to VS at the firm?- thirdtimelucky

I’ve not done a case study at Bakers but my experience of doing one was that it aligns quite closely with the firms core practice areas. The case study I did had lots of different elements (including some M&A) but it was definitely more advisory and just spotting potential commercial problems...- thirdtimelucky

I applied at 1 am on the 31st December, received VI invite on the 6th January! From my portal it only says vacation scheme and I don't remember putting down a preference so I am assuming there is only one VS!- thirdtimelucky

Last year I got to the partner interview! (Hoping to get to the VS this year lol!) but yes not sure how I did given the VI was quite tough!! I’m already anxious and only submitted it 2/3 hours ago haha so I totally understand! Given they’ve been getting back to people quite quickly with VI...- thirdtimelucky

When did you do it? I did mine just now but last year they took 4 months to get back to me though understandably they were dealing with the COVID pandemic so needed to make new arrangements! Hopefully it will be sooner than that :D- thirdtimelucky

I did it last year and got to the tests stage again this year but decided for the sake of my mental health, happiness and brain power not to do it! To anyone who passes it, you are certified geniuses! (I can still see the shapes in my nightmares)- thirdtimelucky
