[Ravenclaw]

Anyone heard from:

Freshfields TC (following a portal update)
Sidley Austin - Spring VS
Ropes & Gray - Spring VS
Dechert - Spring VS
Slaughter and May TC
Milbank - Summer VS
Cleary - Spring VS

Hey, wouldn't worry too much about Milbank for awhile. They state on the website they would contact successful applicants for AC's in April

Links just emailed asking for my mit circs proof

Is it for the direct TC? And how long do you have to forward the proof?

 

[ibs97]

Still waiting! It’s the two week mark for me tomorrow. I think we might be the final batch of candidates and they’re just deciding still

I had my A&O AC on Tuesday and they told us we were the last AC of this recruitment cycle so you should hear back soon

Have you already had your AC and offer? I don’t have mitigating circumstances, but international qualifications, so assuming they might want to see a transcript at some point

Does anyone have any advice for the Osborne Clarke AC? Thanks!!

This is w/o any offer or AC. By the way I spoke to them on the phone and they are holding ACs throughout the next few weeks so there is still some hope

Did you have an AC interview at Links? Would love to know what you thought about and get some general tips/feedback on the process

Pm me

Yes, they did mention to me that they are finalising who they have on their spring vac scheme early March. Feel like I’ve read from a lot of people, so fingers crossed everyone hears back from them soon.

tell me about it! I think since the beginning of this app cycle my daily screen time has gone up by 400%

 

[nina_123]

Got a rejection this afternoon

Hey, so sorry to hear!! Do you mind me asking when you did the VI?

 

[D95]

Rejection from Taylor Vinters post balloons blowing... I mean, post game-based assessment

Disappointing, but not surprising.

Aww I am so sorry - but don't worry! Something good will happen without the need for blowing up balloons!
