Shearman & Sterling Winter Vacation Scheme

After waiting a month, I'm pleased to say I've been offered a place :) But they offered me the spring one and I asked them why since I was one of the first ones they interviewed. They said that they want the schemes to be made of people with mix skills/background. I may be wrong, but based on my feedback, it seems like the standards might be slightly higher for the winter. I'd recommend applying for the spring/summer anyway if they've said so!

Congratulations on the placement. Hope it goes great!
