    Thank you, Andrei! Echoing what someone else asked about this interview, would you, or anyone else in this thread, have any advice on how to prepare for an attendance note/email exercise?

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    Does anyone have any insights/advice on the Farrer & Co interviews? I can't find anything about what type of interview it is (i.e. competency, strength, or general). Or does anyone know of good resources to practice for interviews on a small budget? Any guidance would be super helpful!

    Hi, I haven't received any information other than it being a proofreading exercise that would take 25 minutes at most. The platform it is administered on is skillsarena, which I have researched and not found much on!

    I think you get considered for both as they asked for preferences at the AC, hope that helps :)

    Has anyone else done the Fieldfisher test and not heard back since? I did it ages ago, sent a follow-up email and still haven't heard anything. Should I assume rejection?
