Linklaters 2019/20 Application
I found it very comparable with the WG for Clifford Chance, and actually a bit easier than the WG I took for some other firms. If you've practised tests using Assessment Day or jobtestprep, it's very similar in terms of difficulty.- Biena

Linklaters 2019/20 Application
I think others have answered this in the thread, but the Capps test is not something you can prepare for as it's basically situational judgment and how you would personally react to something. Obviously you can prepare for the mini WG and normal WG as you would with anything else.- Biena

Linklaters 2019/20 Application
The deadline is the 16th and they're non-rolling (this is assuming you applied for direct TC), so I doubt we would hear anything until the new year as they won't begin to review until after the 16th.- Biena

Having no extracurriculars?
Hey all, I am a couple of years out of university, with a (demanding!) full-time job on a consulting grad scheme while also studying part-time for exams. Because I also try to have a social life when I can, I really do no extracurriculars apart from a volunteering day here and there through...- Biena

I applied for a TC rather than vac scheme so I believe the deadline hasn't passed yet and I'm still under review.- Biena

I've just done the tests, weirdly I found them harder than the Linklaters ones as with these there seemed to be more obvious 'good' options. Happy to help anyone who needs it!- Biena

Nothing that can be done to prepare for the CAPP as it's situational judgment. And yes, the 5 day deadline for WG begins upon completion of the first test.- Biena
