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

[J32]

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the apply4law portals? They won’t load

I just tried and it's the same here! Maybe it's a maintenance issue/ repair going on?

Possibly! As it’s the same thing for all firms I’ve tried to log into

I think it's a maintenance issue. I couldn't get access to my white & case application.

Yes, I am having the same issue! Will someone please update this thread if they find the maintenance issue is sorted? Thanks so much!

Who is the cover letter addressed to for Skadden?
Just a generic 'Dear Graduate Recruitment' or something else?

If you could post your AC experience in the ‘Macfarlanes’ section of the ‘interviews discussion’ section of the forum I’m sure a lot of people would really appreciate it

Hi Mark, the application doesn't specify who you should address the cover letter to. But I addressed my cover letter to the graduate recruitment manager Mathieu Pinto Cardoso.

My friend who passed application stage last year put “Dear Sir or Madam”

Yep, I'll draft my experience and post it as I've got a lot of PM's

Just did the Ashurst Test. Truly ridiculous how 10 second games are supposed to decide who gets a scheme and who doesn't.

 

[JayB]

Has anyone heard back from HSF regarding the spring scheme. On student room, people have received AC invites but for the summer scheme? Has anyone completed an AC for spring yet?!

I haven't heard back yet. I've heard rejections and invitations were sent out. I suppose this means they are still going through applications.
