    I applied to WBD early Jan and they said we'll hear after the app deadline which was 28 Feb. There's literally been radio silence since then :/

    Yeah, it is non-rolling. I think what they mean by the 'next few weeks' part of the email is that they won't be contacting us if we've been rejected - that's why I was asking how much time is 'next few weeks'

    Congratulations, hope you get on! Does anyone have any idea on what differentiates reserve list candidates from rejected candidates? I looked at rhe general feedback email that CRS sent and honestly I can tick off everything that they said on it. There's no personal feedback so I don't know...

    I went to a CRS open day two months ago and haven't been reimbursed yet . Wanna ask them to forget about the reimbursement and just give me a place on the scheme instead 🤣🤣🤣 (This is obviously a joke, please don't come at me)

    Don't remember but I recall someone on here saying that the spring VS scheme has already been filled and all the summer offers I saw on here were almost a week ago so I'm now assuming a rejection

    Just submitted an application for Browne Jacobson and the email says the following: "If over the next few weeks you don't hear from us again, then regrettably we will not be taking your application forward on this occasion." How much time is 'next few weeks'? 2-3?

    Quite honestly I really did have fun! I don't know what firm your AC is with, might be a different experience but try to just be in the process. I went into the AC thinking that I was gonna learn something new and took some pressure off of it. Good luck with your AC!
