[QUOTE="George Maxwell, post: 94703, member: 17165"] Hi [USER=4229]@Anita[/USER], I am really sorry to hear this. [USER=1993]@Romiras[/USER] and [USER=2273]@em311[/USER] have given you some great advice. I know how much investment a vacation scheme takes, so how you are feeling is absolutely understandable. Two positive steps to take right now: 1. As you have previously touched on, make sure that you take time out and look after yourself. If this only happened yesterday, it is entirely appropriate to give yourself time away from the process of applying. See a friend and chat about anything but law. Taking time out will allow you to take a breath, reflect and come back stronger. 2. Seek feedback. Follow up on this if the firm drags their feet on getting back to you. Feedback is essential to improving for next time. I am sure if you decide that you would like to continue applying (which I really hope you do!), you [I]will[/I] progress in your future applications. I hope that in future you can look back on this and see this as a period from which to build resilience. My knocks were really tough. In October last year I remember feeling pretty lost after a rejection from a TC interview with one of my top firms. However in retrospect, these setbacks forced me to develop into a better candidate and a more resilient, determined person. We are all here to support you during this process. We will be there when you ultimately succeed. We believe in you! Don't let one firm's opinion define you. Vacation schemes give firms a [I]brief[/I] insight and from that they make a decision. You are more than that! Tagging [USER=16764]@James Carrabino[/USER] for his thoughts 👊 [/QUOTE]
