Hi Nat! I was wondering if you could give us any tips on how to best prepare for an interview? I have mine on the 18th Jan and don’t really know what I should do in advance for the commercial awareness part. Also in your experience are they more focused on motivational or competency based...
Hi! Has anyone heard back from Macfarlanes about the vacation scheme? They are apparently reviewing applications on a rolling basis, but now that we are slowly approaching January I wonder whether they might hold those invitations back until after the deadline?
Hi guys!
Just to let you know, I received an interview invitation for the summer vacation scheme today! I think they are now moving on from the winter workshop applications and summer scheme applicants should hear back soon.
Do you mind me asking if you progressed to the interview stage? So far I only saw people receiving rejections, so hopefully they are now sending out some invites too!
I am participating in the competition this year and your advice is SUPER helpful! The email circulated among participants does not really specify what to prepare for, they only talk in general topic areas, like financial instrument, commercial concepts, etc. The Finimize glossary is exactly what...

Hey!
Has anyone heard back regarding the Slaughter and May 2021 summer vac scheme? I applied a month ago, but still nothing. In this thread there were people who already received a response for direct TCs, so I was wondering if VS will come after they sent out some TC interview invites. Thanks!

Thank you!
Congrats on the offer, that's a great achievement!
So just to clarify, the McQuaig test forms only part of the AC and does not have to be completed online with the application form? Also, could you just give us some insight into how the written exercise and the interview were structured and...
Hey,
Thank you both, that's really helpful, I can now practice! Also, do you know whether they recruit for vac schemes on a rolling basis? For the TC they wait until the deadline in January, but I haven't found any info on whether this is the case with the summer placement as well.
Hi guys!
I'm trying to gather as much info as possible on the vac scheme application process at Trowers & Hamlins before they open on 1st October. What I realised is that their website is not as detailed in explaining the different steps as some other international firms are. I was wondering if...
