Nope! I believe there was a group exercise running yesterday (Friday) and that was the last of the ACs, so I think we'll hear back after the weekend.

Skadden AC

I got an email about DBS check forms due by the 8th if you're made an offer, so I'm guessing we will know before then :)

Skadden Telephone Interview

Just had my interview - basic questions about why law, why my degree, why Skadden, and a recent news story - just know your app well and it will be fine! Said they're interviewing candidates until Monday then AC interviews will be sent

Slaughter and May TC interviews

Hello all! I just confirmed my TC interview with Slaughters, and I was wondering if anyone had any advice. They’re my top firm so I’m desperate to do well, and especially so as I was rejected after interview for their vac scheme. If anyone has any experience let me know!

Re-applied to Travers Smith for the summer scheme - not sure if it's even worth it this point after them not reading my apps for summer 2019 / winter 2020 until the scheme was full!

Just got invited for an interview with Jones Day this evening! This is for their summer scheme btw - got told they were asking for an academic reference a few days ago then had the interview confirmed today. Good luck to anyone else who has applied - I'm assuming the academic reference usually...

General Discussion Thread 2020-21

Yep - this happened to me for the summer scheme last year. It seems Travers are notoriously bad at looking at apps / getting back to people. I applied to the winter scheme this year which was obviously unsuccessful as it must be full by now, and it has really annoyed me as I actually really like...
