    Post AC, the firm said “at the latest you will hear back during week commencing April 22nd” but sent no email after to indicate a delay / change to this. Surely this wouldn’t include the weekend or would it? Otherwise it looks like a PFO from me on Monday or never if I’ve been forgotten 🤣

    I’ve done this before for short term jobs etc. it’s just easier so when they do ask for a reference, you can pick from the ones on your cv (most recent and most favourable). The only thing it might do is prompt a question on a gap in your cv for timing for where that job would’ve been. I feel...

    Amazing thank you so much for your insight!! I never even thought about asking if I can mention something personal, that’s so clever. Hopefully these experiences make us memorable 🤣And sorry to hear about your experience in hospital! 🙏🏼

    What is everyone’s opinion about disclosing personal obstacles/difficulties in certain questions? I am someone who struggled with social anxiety on the most extreme level throughout uni, which really hindered me. So I spent a lot of time post-uni working on it and going through hell to get...

    Thank you for explaining. This helps… I would rather try my chances with the LPC & SQE2 rather than the whole thing in all honesty. It’s worth asking if I reach that point I guess

    Does anyone know if law firms have/will be willing to still let graduates sit the LPC over the SQE for TCs 2024 and beyond? If I was successful this cycle, I would much prefer to do the LPC as I am still applying for traditional training contracts.. so it shouldn’t make the world of difference?

    Just wanna say to anyone who has been rejected post-AC, once the initial disappointment wears off, to take some time to evaluate the experience. I’ve reached ACs with certain firms like CMS before and wasn’t successful - but ahead of finding that out, I knew it wasn’t the right firm for me just...

    I hope they are at least reviewing second attempts holistically for each individual person then! I still think it’s a crazy stance to take given the SQE is holding you at NQ level compared to the LPC.
