[QUOTE="Matt_96, post: 69087, member: 1260"] I don't think you need to take your contact's advice seriously. Travers is an excellent firm. All the guides say so, and training there if you can get in would give you great exit opportunities. The advice you were given seems suspicious to me. Could they have had a bad experience with the firm? Maybe Travers is weak in their practice area and they are casting that onto the firm as a whole? Maybe they think Travers isn't doing enough for social mobility - or perhaps, cynically, trying to be too diverse? In an age where you'd be lucky to get a training contract anywhere, let alone be picky about whether you work at a firm higher in the rankings than the Silver Circle (of which there aren't many) I think those comments say more about your contact than it does about Travers, honestly.
