I haven’t spoke to enough recruiters to have complete clarity on this. But it seems there isn’t a “general feeling” - firms aren’t very much taking their own approach to this given the flexibility it provides.From what I have heard, as many firms will have to move to SQE process for final year non-law graduates from this Autumn’s recruitment process, many are looking to move across to a more consistent process from 2022/23 onwards.Some are happy to have a mix of traditional TC and new SQE models, but the whole structure is very different and there are some concerns around how to manage two pools of candidates who have very different rights/requirements.I think it depends on how the firm is approaching when someone will start though (eg pre SQE 1, post SQE 1, some even post SQE2) and whether non law grads are still being put through a GDL equivalent.
