does anyone have insight to the Sidley AC interview? I understand it’s in-tray discussing with a partner but seeing the interview is an hour do they ask other interview questions? Motivational? Competency? Technical? Thank you.
Can provide AC insight for Skadden, Milbank and Travers.
Guys for those of you who don’t know, I’ve heard from a friend that Travers Smith calls you if you’ve secured an interview. Just a heads up for those waiting.
Based on last year’s forum, people began to hear back from around the 20th of Feb to early March so hopefully this time next week we will start to receive partner interview invites. 🙂
Best of luck to everyone that has applied to Travers Smith. Hopefully it’s good news for all of us. 🙂
I saw someone mention on the forum that Travers Smith introduced a new online test for their recruitment process. They made a huge deal during their insight evening about their ‘simple’ process (application and interview). It’s even on their website and marketing stuff. Hopefully it’s not true...
Hello!
I've found the following information from 2022 which might assist - however, their stance may have changed since then! I would say it's worth emailing the graduate recruitment team to double-check, as I'm sure they'd be happy to confirm for you :)
Good morning all,
I take a glance at the forum here and there nowadays and it’s so nice to see how supportive everyone’s being!
Time for my quarterly (or monthly??!) update:
PFOs so far:
• Reed Smith post app
• Taylor Wessing post SJT
• HSF Kramer even after passing SJT
• Skadden post app...
Hoping Travers Smith will get back to us this week or next with either a partner interview invite or a PFO. At this point my reaction will be the same because the waiting is long asf. 🥲
From what I have seen, Travers smith seem to call everyone that has submitted a successful application to inform them that they have made it to the partner interview stage. I don’t think they hand them out in one go. 🙂
Based on last year’s forum, some people even received invites in early...
Why is Gibson Dunn in your cross section?
Gotta be hopeful that the feedback will be positive, no?
I'm waiting for feedback myself as well so gotta think positive.
If this is for Travers SVS, I haven’t heard back yet but tbh the deadline was only a week ago.
They mentioned in the automated email thing that they read all applications first, then shortlist candidates for the interview. It may take several weeks before we hear back. 🥲🥲
Update!
A few PFOs to add to the list:
Milbank - post stage 2 test
Mills & Reeve - post VI
Cooley - post app
Bates Wells - post app
Currently waiting to hear back from:
DLA Piper (not London) - post interview/for AC
Addleshaw Goddard - for VI (not hopeful since I know a few people...
