Thanks Emily. I did mine on the 20th too... I haven't found anyone that has an AC invite yet - no news is good news so far!

Ah okay- in a similar position with Stephenson Harwood, not sure whether it's worth emailing again (and risk annoying them!)
Hey! Sorry to hear about your rejection, but you're smashing it with all your other schemes! Was this before or after interview?Just got my rejection email from their winter scheme yesterday. Not too bothered as I already have my winter, spring and summer schemes sorted for this year now. The email said they will instead consider my application for their spring and summer schemes as the winter scheme only had 8 places apparently. I submitted my app super late so I am not bothered anyway and not surprised either.
If your app was for winter, they will consider you for spring or summer it seems. If it was for spring/summer they will probably start reviewing those apps now so you should hear shortly. Hope this helps
Hi. I've had 'why them, challanges for law firms in the legal market' , and then some scenario based questions based on their competencies. From what I've heard the questions are different for each candidate, but just have some bullet points for why them, why law, what attributes do you bring, and competency answers for their competencies and you'll be fine. 30 sec prep 90sec answers 6 questions.

Hi, what spring/summer schemes do you already have? Wasn't aware they had starting doing ACs for those for a lot of firms.
Im in the same boat! I’m never sure whether to risk emailing them or not? I think I’ll just wait it out till the end of the week
Hi! Has anyone heard anything from Simmons & Simmons (regarding their winter vacation scheme)? I sat the online tests and the VI about 2 weeks ago and still have not heard anything.

With a winter scheme less than 4 weeks away, I'd contact the firm and ask for an update.
Hey, in case anyone is waiting to hear about open days - I received a rejection for eversheds yesterday and an invitation to DLAs today - both London
Do you mean they have applications open for 2021 and 2022 for example? If this is what you mean, I would assume you would need to look at the firm's policy on applying as many will not allow you to reapply within the same cycle. The cycle running from September 2019- July 2020.
Bird & Bird AC invite. Can anyone who has done it before offer some guidance on what the day entails and how to best prepare? Thanks
