    Going to an open day doesn't mean you actually applied to the firm for a TC/VS. I'm guessing you did, but merely talking about an open day simply shows you were doing in-person research to find out/inform your preferences in a firm. I think it'll be fine - at Dechert's open day they said you...

    Thank you and just did the interview. For anyone who has a Travers interview in the future or coming up you do not know what to expect so even if you prep don't be surprised if the interviewer asks you questions you were not expecting.

    That should not be an issue. I cut out in Travers interview. They get that tech often fails. Some firms get Ds for Legal Tech. This is Legal Cheek survey data. Things not working =/= your fault. At least not all the time.

    Hi! It is commercial discussing an article however I would say that it is a 50 50 split with competency questions. The competency questions were not too hard and felt like a conversation. For the commercial element there was not a lot of guidance for me, the Partner just kind of let me talk...

    If we haven't heard from W&C, is it a rejection by now? Heard nothing after sending the application. Applied to a couple of firms this cycle where I've done VIs and/or ACs before and not sure it's honestly worthwhile. I have had the opposite experience where I applied to Travers three times...

    Off the top of my head: - Slaughter and May - Travers Smith - Debevoise & Plimpton - Winston & Strawn - Jones Day Checks out, as they are known to be a little more traditional generally, which seems to reflect in their recruitment methods.
