Squire Patton Boggs personal statement

Is there anyone who has done the SPB AC today?

 

[Law on my mind]

Guys who are SPB's competitors and why?

Im thinking Clyde and Co and Reed Smith as two examples but I'm not entirely sure,

I'd appreciate some help

Just wanted to ask those who had their AC’s already and got responses how long did SPB take post AC to respond? Thanks

It was mentioned explicitly in the first email that I received
“We hope to be able to run the Summer Placement Scheme face to face subject to government guidelines.”

 

[lawyer foru]

really strange - Gowling told us all the topics ahead of the AC! Why have they done this?

 

[nat237]

Hi All

Please if anyone could give any tips of insight into the AC it would be really appreciated.

Ive never done an in-person one and not sure what to expect. Feel free to privately message if thats easier

Thank you!

For reference to anyone who applied.

Last year I completed the video interview for SPB on the 21st January and was emailed an invitation for the AC on the 30th Jan.

I anticipate there will probably be similar timeline this year, if not slight delays due to WFH issues.

Hi, What kind of questions do they ask in their video interview? Is it more on commercial awareness or about you and the firm?
