    Hey can I ask how long it took to get the first test? Also, when did you get the VI? Thanks!

    I got a VS last year and my AC interview was scheduled for 50 minutes, and didn’t last more than 30.

    One of my 20 or so references in my Baker McKenzie app is ‘Baker Mckenzie’. Is my application doomed? 😕

    They’ll receive 50% of their applications over the next couple of days. I doubt they have stopped sending out their automatic tests- as they’ll be inundated with emails from people applying. I’m sure we’ll get it! 🤞

    I applied an hour ago. I know their first test is supposedly automatic? Anyone who did receive it, how long did it take?

    I think they’ve got back to people with TIs. It’s probably a PFO at this point but they might not send these out for a while.

    I don’t think so no. On a general point, are there really any firms which are on a rolling basis for direct TC? Don’t most have to wait for their Vacation Schemes anyway?

    Does anyone else seem to have more luck with some application websites than others? I have never got past the application stage if the firm uses cvmail...

    The lack of TCs will have reduced the number of applicants (I didn’t look at W&S for example) so don’t lose hope!

    Thanks for this Ram! Did you have an interview at the end, or do Cooley only judge candidates holistically on the scheme?
