The website says that they are currently recruiting for individuals who can start in March 2026. I'm not sure if that means the TC or the SQE.- WeGotThis!

I read somewhere, not sure where, but it said that RS considers the VI and SJT scores cumulatively. So I think it can balance out. Let's all hope for the best! 🤞- WeGotThis!

Is K&L Gates DTC rolling, and also, it says that there is a verbal reasoning test, so does that need to be completed along with the application, or is it sent later by the Grad Rec team as the 2nd stage? A clarification on these points will be helpful. Thank you! :)- WeGotThis!
