Skadden AC

Did anyone get a VS offer/rejection yet?

Everyone from my uni(like 3-4 people) haven't heard back. It makes me think that no one was offered/rejected?

Also, re the DBS check, the email says it's due by 8th Feb. The way I see it, it doesn't mean anyone that correlates to the offers, perhaps its just needed for their HR/admin purposes?

All the very best!

Yeah, what's likely is just that they want everyone to have their documents in hand before handing out offers.

Nope... feels like a pfo but no one seems to have heard!
No ones heard back yet AFAIK, from this forum, TSR and anecdotally speaking to people at my AC/from my uni. You may well be made a offer- hang in there ,hopefully we hear soon before the week ends :D

Also @conniekatherine , did Skadden respond to your email in re to the mistaken call 😅 😅 . If not, I suppose they're extremely busy ?

hang in there all!

I don't think anyone has heard yet ! Seen nothing on the forums, feels like they're taking ages :(

Here's to another day of long walks and avoiding obsessing over our inboxes 😅

As an update, I messaged someone on here who got a VS last year and Skadden let them know 2 days after their AC, but did give them a date at the AC of when they would know. I can't see anyone who has secured one so I really think they're just taking longer this year!

Yeh I spoke to someone there and they said they heard back 1-2 weeks after the AC (for the vac)
