I haven't heard back and it has been 14 days. I think the 7 days might have just been when you would recieve the test report with your strengths? I got that pretty quickly after

The seven days should be for finding out whether you've got an interview because my email for my feedback said "We will be in touch within 7 days regarding the outcome of your application.".
It's been 14 days for me now and I haven't heard back. I emailed them and they said that they're still reviewing it. I tried to phone but they don't accept phonecalls. I've actually been really put off the firm by this. If they hadn't given a timescale then that's fine but this just demonstrates that they can't/won't even almost stick to deadlines and are very disorganised. I feel like this could get very frustrating if you're trying to sort out seat rotations or funding for the LPC etc. Not having a phoneline appears to not want to be chased up or accountable and makes me feel pretty unwelcome. Fieldfisher were in my top three firms (along with HSF and Freshfields) but this experience has really lowered them on my preferences to be honest.

I also just received an invite to the telephone interview! Booked mine in for Monday.

 

[PSM]

Great to hear guys! Best of luck. It was a mix of competency and motivation questions.

Thought mine went well, hard to gauge though as they don’t give anything away!

 

[KatieCCM]

I’ve still not heard back but got an email late last week to say they’re reviewing my assessment results now? Perhaps will hear the outcome this week

Anyone got an invite to the assesment centre? I got an email saying I need to pick a slot by March 2020 which seems very odd.

nothing yet, when did you do telephone interview?

 

[HA99]

i didn’t actually get one? Did you??

No - that’s why I wondered if anyone else got any. Seems quite odd that they’d mention it in the email. Just waiting on the outcome now!

Someone on The Student Room said they got one. Not sure if they maybe changed questions?

I saw that the Manchester assessment centres were on the 17 December?

 

[PSM]

I saw that the Manchester assessment centres were on the 17 December?

Where did you see that? you applying to Manchester?

 

[Zup]

I saw that the Manchester assessment centres were on the 17 December?

Yeah and Birmingham and London are next week!

Worth remember that these assessment centres are for the Diversity Access Scheme and NOT the training contracts!

Are people on this thread reffering to the Training contract or Diversity Scheme applications?
