I feel for you - as you said, so so many other people are in the same position as you (it has actually been a running theme of my office hours). I know that you're feeling very disappointed in yourself, but I'd want you to remember that so much of this process is outside of your control. You are likely to be an excellent candidate, and others just so happened to have more luck than you this cycle, which isn't a reflection on your abilities or potential to be a great lawyer. One of the unfortunate facts of the online world is we now get to see every time someone gets an offer, which I think is very unhealthy - the reality is that the vast majority of people haven't got offers this cycle.
It's really hard to imagine this, but I'd also remind you of the long term - when you look back on this, as a lawyer, the fact that you took a bit longer to secure a training contract won't matter. If anything, if you stick through this, going through this rejection right now is going to make you come out as a very resilient person.

Agree on this - there might be other places like “extra information” sections that where this information could be included instead.

Technically with the SQE you could set up your own firm and get a qualified lawyer from outside of the firm to sign off your qualifying work experience.
@SecretSantaxx We're in business! Find some 'qualified' lawyer to use as our poster-child and lets cheat the system!Technically with the SQE you could set up your own firm and get a qualified lawyer from outside of the firm to sign off your qualifying work experience.

Nah we need an England and Wales qualified lawyer. Just pick a name from the Law Society directory and we're good to go

Haha.... has to be England and Wales qualified unfortunately....
And before anyone thinks about bribing a Tory MP or two, they have to be practicing still
If they just toss in a couple of billables for reading our emails, does that count?Haha.... has to be England and Wales qualified unfortunately....

I just received a WG test invite from Stephenson Harwood- my app was for either a TC starting in 2023 or a vacation scheme (June or July), is there any way to know which of the two I'm being considered for?
Exactly how I felt! It was such an odd interview and they didn’t seem to be interested in me at all
