    A&O Shearman Summer VS PFO Could anyone give me any clue about the PFO message below? Does it mean that I struggled in those areas or it was just a general message that they sent to everyone for PFO? Also any advice on how to reflect and prepare better for the next time would be appreciated...

    that is really good to know, shame though that it comes down to luck when people put in so much effort to apply. Can i ask, what exactly is their view on US firms?

    The case study: mine was a Private Equity client looking to acquire startup (vac scheme AC but I imagine it would be similar for direct TC). The SJT interview is very calm, just use examples where possible from your own experience
