    Does anyone know if CMS looks at your application before the WG invite? Or do they send everyone a WG invite and only look at the app before they hand out VIs?

    So I sent my app 20th Nov, got an invite to the SST on the 24th which I completed a few days later, but have not heard back since. I reckon as time goes on, they will take longer to reply as more apps flood in

    What is HL BaSE?

    Has anyone applied to Reed Smith? I sent off my application on Sunday but still not heard back or received an invite to the SST. I was wondering if anyone knows how long they roughly take to get back to you?
