Did they ring or email you? Congrats!

Thank you! They rang me and then sent a follow up email after the call

Got a VI for V&E too! This is my first round of applications and I've never done a VI before - does anyone have any tips?

Also, does anyone know what the next steps are for V&E if you get through the VI? Thanks!

Has anyone heard back from Freshfields' post-WG for the summer VS?

Thinks its a proper AC? Not 100% Tho!

From the one ive done before. Would reccomend having your classic competency questions prepped, and also why law, why the firm etc.

I think I just got a PFO from Pinsent Masons? The email says "we appreciate you may be disappointed by this decision," without them saying what the decision actually is!

Oh, that's bizarre! Maybe check your portal and see if there is more info there?

I am still waiting to hear back!

 

[AS2000]

Does not hearing from V&I today mean a PFO is coming?

Hi, congratulations on the video interview!

I believe the next stage consists of two parts: a presentation with follow-up questions alongside a partner interview (I don't think there is any group exercise element)

Anyone who applies to Pinsent Masons London still waiting to hear back? Not sure if I should contact grad rec since many people seem to have heard back or just wait

They just sent me another one, which actually specifies the rejection, but says good morning instead of good afternoon this time haha. Great attention to detail!
