DLA Piper Application

[Emily K]

i have a hotmail account and still nothing!! i already emailed earlier in the week tho to chase my app (they replied saying still reviewing) so i dont want to email again. just annoying that there's obviously an update and i dont know what it is lol

Ah let me know if you receive an outcome, I have a gmail account so slightly worried it won't come through haha! Yeah it's agonising isn't it! I know they said to expect an update by 5th Feb, but hopefully it will be sooner than that

Has anyone else still to hear back? My application was updated on the 20th Jan but I can still 'withdraw'

I'm still waiting but mine hasn't even been updated yet...! 😰

Me too!

Did you say you spoke to grad rec? I'm worried I've missed something - am I right in saying you can't check for messages on the portal? Just email?

Yeah, they said they're still reviewing apps and we should hear back by mid-Feb. It doesn't seem like you can check for messages on the portal, but if you're worried then I would email them

Ok great thanks! Worried to get in touch in case I get a rejection as my reply 😂 maybe best to wait until mid-Feb?

I'm in the same situation. I'm giving it until 5th Feb since one of their emails stated that we should expect an update by then. I'm just nervous because of the whole problem reaching gmail accounts!

That's exactly why I'm nervous too - I have heard there has been a problem with Gmail!

 

[Bonolaw]

The problem I am having here as a gmail account holder is how many people have not received their invites to move forward with the application, and have therefore missed other deadlines to accept the invite and hence ben rejected for that reason through no fault of their own.

Has anyone been told by DLA that they specifically are having the problem with Gmail?

This was included in their email to me: "There seems to be an issue with our emails reaching gmail accounts which we are currently looking into."

 

[NikkiT]

If this helps anyone, I just called graduate recruitment and they are still reviewing applications this week!

 

[NikkiT]

Can anyone help ??
How to create your first post.
Thank you.

Unsure what you mean? You mean how to create a thread?

It’s more than likely a spam post. I will look into it.

Do you have a gmail account?

Do you have a gmail account?

Yes, I do

The status on my application hasn't changed since I submitted it. Anyone else in the same boat?

 

[KS94]

I'm using a gmail account and not had an update.

I have noticed issues over the last few years with emails and GR. Had the same issue with Pinsent Masons and therefore switched from Outlook to gmail this year and now I find myself in the same boat again.
