I thought that this could be an area where I can remember to apply and actually hold myself accountable. In terms of my background, I am about to graduate from a decent RG university, I have good grades, I have a vac scheme at a reputable firm and I also have middle east experience, where I have interned at 3 UK/US firms in the MENA region and one MENA firm where I gained experiences into a lot of different practice areas.Aspirationally, I know I want to experience corporate and finance seats, but I also want the opportunity to go for competition and tech seats. So its very wide and I do tailor my applications depending on the firm's strengths but I find myself interested in these areas for certain.I have done 2 cycles, my first cycle I wrote 9 or so meh applications, but because I was a BA for the VS firm, I was automatically invited to interview and then I dazzled them with some securitisation knowledge (re: I misrepresented that D2E swaps are a product when they are the mechanism). However, after not converting my VS into a TC, I felt some concern as an international student and academically, but I also knew that I could work hard to ensure I get to that place. This cycle I wrote 18 applications, and I actually liked a few of them. However, I only got one VI, a few test invites (which I then messed up due to issues in prioritisation), but ultimately I learnt a lot. For example, I learnt that Jones Day really does get back to you within 15 days, was pleasantly surprised there.I know theres a good amount of Direct TCs still open, and seeing as a lot of firms align with my practice area interests, I will be getting back into applying to them properly. I have 10 applications remaining, and these are the ones I am considering:Reed SmithEvershedsRPCWFWHFWMacfarlanesWhite & CaseStephenson HarwoodI'm going to set a time on the weekend where I talk to you all about the processes and what I did in the week.Amat victoria curam. </blockquote>
