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

[Holly]

Have you heard from Macfarlanes regarding feedback? I emailed straight after my rejection email requesting feedback but they haven’t got back to me yet!

Hey Maddie

Yep they haven’t got back to me either!

 

[Noah]

Are there even any places left? I received a holding email 2 weeks ago

How many spaces do they offer? I heard it’s only around 10

Hi,

Does anyone recommend sending a thank you email to HR post AC?

No point in my opinion, I've never sent one and been okay.

 

[Holly]

omg i’m the exact same hahaha 6 ACs with 5 rejections so far....

I’m praying the sixth one is an offer. Best of luck!

Hi,

Does anyone recommend sending a thank you email to HR post AC?

personally wouldn’t worry to much about it.

 

[FutureCity]

This was BCLP’s response:

“Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide an exact update at this time but we are aiming to get back to everyone within the next couple of weeks. This is a very busy time for us but we appreciate your patience.”

Also, I haven’t heard anything from Orrick!

This level of delay can’t be good.

 

[Lumree]

This level of delay can’t be good.

I think all my outstanding applications are over a month in waiting now... I’m not feeling too hopeful

 

[Tcapplicant]

What stage?

post application, thanks!

I’m praying the sixth one is an offer. Best of luck!

you are too kind! all the best

Who’s still waiting from Ashurst? Have they started sending AC invites for the Direct TC!

 

[D]

Massive congrats!

I'd certainly like to take you on that AC strategy offer. I've had six AC's this cycle, and six rejections! Firms are slow at providing feedback so starting to think something is wrong with me!

Sure!

Just drop me a PM with the questions you have.

White & Case Spring Scheme rejection post-ac

Who’s still waiting from Ashurst? Have they started sending AC invites for the Direct TC!

They are only finishing their Vac Scheme ACs this week so I assume not!

 

[Noah]

They are only finishing their Vac Scheme ACs this week so I assume not!

Very useful to know so they will probably start their direct TC interviews soon then!

Latham Spring VS offer! 3 VS's for me now so I think I'm fully booked up. Super happy considering the work I have put in (and how my academics have suffered as a consequence!)

I repeat what I have said earlier in this thread. If I can help with application review or AC strategy, let me know/drop me a Pm and I'll do my best!

Best of luck to everyone who is waiting.

I'm gonna piggy back off this and say same for me, Latham Spring VS offer!!

I too likewise have been super lucky this cycle and have received a total of 3 VS offers! I'm an international student and this is my last chance to secure a TC before I am forced to leave when my visa runs out. So the fact that my chances of securing a TC is now triple fold is crazy to me (especially after having been rejected post VS last year)

Thank you so so much to everyone on this forum because my success wouldn't have been possible without the many helpful strangers on here who have been kind enough to give me hints and advice on the ACs and the application process. Thank you @Jaysen for this incredible forum. I'm not exaggerating when I say it has honestly been game-changing for me.

I would like to return the favour and help anyone in any way I can as well. So if anyone needs advice/help with Bakers, NRF, Latham, HSF, Slaughters or Ashurst feel free PM me and I will do my best to help!

Hello,

I received an invite to complete the online verbal and deductive reasoning tests for Browne Jacobson. I am currently practicing as much as possible before the deadline date, but can’t seem to find as many resources as I would like to practice. My biggest issue is that I can’t seem to get past the 60 percent mark.

I’m also waiting to hear back from Travers Smith regarding the summer vac scheme, does anyone know if they have filled their AC places yet ?

Thank you !

Have a skype interview with Russell-Cooke on Monday, really pleased!
Does anyone have any advice? Would be massively appreciated!
