I just got an email inviting me to the final stage of the interview! I wonder how many people they’re inviting to the final stage aha

So happy because I was expecting a rejection! But also stressed as the interview will be right in the middle of my exams!

I got an interview too for the final stage!!! A massive congratulations to everyone who secured a training contract. I hope you are celebrating tonight. To everyone else, it is not 'if' it is 'when' ... we become lawyers. We all got this, our destiny is calling, whether it be Kennedys or another firm...!!!
