Hearing Back from Law Firms, Assessment Centres & Interview Tips - 2019 - 2020

I have a logical reasoning test for Simmons. Does anyone have any practice sites I can use?

None of the practise tests I did care anything close to what the test was like. Some info I was given my a future trainee: don’t be worried if the questions seem really hard because they’re intended to get harder the more you get right. I hope that’s the case

Super excited to have 3 ACs in 8 days starting next Tuesday! Just hoping they all go well (or at least 2) after not doing great at the HSF AC last year!

Is anyone still waiting to hear back from Dentons following the WG test? If so, when did you submit your WG?

Hey, yes I am! I submitted the test two days ago- when did you submit?

I did my CMS VI in the last week of November and still haven't heard back... starting to lose hope!

I did my CMS VI in the last week of November and still haven't heard back... starting to lose hope!

I had to wait over two months after my video interview with CMS last year and I was successful so don’t worry too much!

Does anyone have any information about the Gibson Dunn open day back at the end of last year?

Rejection from Simmons... another rejection to add to my pile of evergrowing rejections.

Huge congrats Caitlin! Can I ask which firms you're interviewing with?

 

[J32]

Anyone heard from Kirkland or Latham?

I know Kirkland will send out AC invites from the end of this week and Latham should start getting back to people from around the 20th-ish (based on what I saw online/ heard from people last year!)

Just got rejected from BCLP. It's a bit disappointing, but it is super nice to have a feedback. They said I didn't know enough about the firm & didn't show a clear enough understanding of their 'DNA'.
They also added 'We would like to take this opportunity to highlight that we considered your application to be strong and would encourage you to apply again in future and show improvements to our points made above'. Not sure if it is just a generic thing, but that's still encouraging! On to the next application, I'll try to be more specific...!
