2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion
Apologies on behalf of this forum member for using such vulgar language. Jacob has a wealth of experience and knowledge which he loves sharing to help people. He does not deserve to be treated in this way, nor does Jessica. I know it can be disappointing if you had spent time trying to come up...- w2719a

Does anyone know if Slaughters are still holding ACs? Their grad rec team haven’t replied to my email. I know people who were rejected pretty quickly but I still haven’t heard anything. Any advice?- w2719a

I still have not heard back from Slaughters but my friend who is a future trainee said that they stop interviewing by the end of January. Does anyone have any contrary information? This is the last firm I am waiting to hear from and the wait is unbearable.- w2719a

I am severely dyslexic and I received extra time for the tests you mention, but I have never come across a firm which allows me to be excluded from taking them (I have asked). I was particularly anxious about this for an editing assessment at Linklaters as I can easily glance over spelling...- w2719a

I think they should make people do the WG as part of the AC. That way it does not cut people off post application and ensures transparency with regards to abilities. Ngl I tend to do quite well with WG so I'm not complaining but I do think that they could manage the tests more fairly.- w2719a

TBH, I do not think it would be fair of me to bad mouth a firm publicly as this was my experience and I know others who have had very positive ones with the firm. If anyo Well done on the ACs. May I ask if you applied for Spring or Summer? Or ticked either?- w2719a

Not immature. I definitely consider the people I will be surrounded by. I was offered fast track to interview for a vac scheme after a first year scheme but did not take the firm up on it. When I was there, I found the vibe very tense and competitive. When I was in my seats the associate made me...- w2719a

That seems pretty unusual to me - can I ask what firm it was? I know plenty of people over the age of 25 who have been successful. If they are judging you based on your age then A) they are breaking the law B) I wouldn't want to work for them.- w2719a
