2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion

I didn't receive an email once I completed the test - which freaked me out a bit as I'm relying on bad rural wifi at the moment. I was scared at the time that it didn't submit properly.

Thank you! I did an application form, then a test. They probably are just making their way through lots of applications at the moment. Hopefully you'll hear back soon :)

The dates available in the email sent to me were: 8th, 9th, 10th February. Honestly my anxiety has been really bad the past couple of days, so I'm just really surprised to have heard from them. Hopefully you'll hear back soon!

I did a vacation scheme with Boodle last year, and had exactly the same thing! For me I got the email around the time the GDL EU law exam results were being given. Once I had uploaded my EU law result I was sent an interview invite the next day. Just make sure to update the form if you get any...

Good luck with your VI! I prepared for it like it was a "normal" interview. I thought ahead about competency question examples as well as the standard questions of why the firm and why law. I finished mine in about 15 minutes (so its pretty short). I would think about how you structure your...
