Dechert summer VI ! Does anyone have any advice? would really really appreciate it, esp for this firm.

If a firm has sent an email saying decisions will be communicated by close of business Monday and I haven't heard today can I assume it's a rejection? This is after an interview.

No, you can use powerpoint slides via zoom sharing and send HR a handout as well in case partners want to print the slides off.

Did grad rec confirm that? I did email but not got a response so just wanted to check!

Hey, I think we'll get a proper response to this in the email they'll send a few days before specifying what we can/can't do for the presentation

The fact that I had to google to remember what KUWTK is just illustrates how much we need to escape the application process

I love your approach and your motivation, you are going to get there! All about taking these knocks in your stride. Good luck for direct TCs!

So true, we need to chill a bit more and recuperate after this cycle!

You're super kind thank you so much, I really appreciate your message!! You will smash the CRS AC/VS, sending lots of luck and positivity your way!!!

Thank you so much! How long do we get to prep/answer?

I think it's 30 seconds to prep and 60-90 to answer (sorry I'm not completely sure I didn't check the time when I spoke loool awful technique I know)

Kirkland rejection post interview finally came through Really disappointed - it was the last outcome I was waiting for this cycle and unfortunately haven't managed to secure a VS for the summer.

Trying to stay positive though, and I'll be back ready to get hurt again for some direct TC apps

Anyone still waiting on Kirkland, hoping you get good news!!

Has anyone heard from Baker McKenzie post-AC yet?
