    Congratulations! Hope it went well. Was this for the VS or TC? I applied for VS and haven't heard anything yet. I have gotten calls from unknown numbers, but I usually decline them, thinking they're spam. Did they send an email after the call, or was it just the call?

    The Disability Confident Scheme doesn’t guarantee an interview to someone with a disability just because they meet the minimum criteria. The actual wording usually says something like a “a fair and proportionate number of candidates.” If 400 applicants said they wanted to be considered under the...

    I would be wary of this. IME it doesn't mean anything. Unless you need particular special arrangements I would be careful about disclosing. It tends to translate into "if you meet the score you are guaranteed an interview". However, it's not clear how that is different from any other candidate...

    Hi, I think Browne Jacobson probably won’t get back until after the deadline. For Fieldfisher when did u apply? I made the initial application on the deadline and haven’t heard back since

    Differs for every firm. Some firms like Travers and Jones Day will not interview you a second time. I did a Weil VI 2 years ago, and made the AC this year

    Hi there! Out of curiosity, if you apply for Travers' direct TC, are you able to apply for VS in the same cycle if unsuccessful? I get that you can't if you make it to the interview, but I can't find much about whether you can in the same cycle anywhere. Thank you!!

    I applied to Travers a long time ago and also received a PFO recently. Check the Direct TC Thread, a lot of people received rejections. Maybe it’s good that you haven’t! Although some people also received PFOs post-interview
