    Guys could you share how long after you took the SJT you heard from Allen & Overy (about rejection or AC)? And which role did you apply for?
    A&O Told me it can take up to 72 hours to hear the outcome of the test results and of course even longer to find out if they want to invite you to interview.

    Ashurst just called and offered me a winter vac scheme! I'm so happy that I'm going to get my free Pret and lie down on a park bench or something.

    I'd like to thank this TCLA thread for being the most overclicked bookmark on my browser

    Congratulations, this is amazing! May I ask when your assessment centre was?

    Hey everyone, I just got a rejection from Ashurst for winter vac scheme post application, my rejection said "your application was of a high standard , but we have unfortunately only been able to shortlist a small percentage of applications for this vacancy" and I just wanted to know if this is their generic email? guess i'm just trying to figure out if my application was actually strong or they just say that to everyone :)
