I spoke to graduate recruitment on the phone and they said they finalised all remaining decisions today. Everyone should hear back post-AC from FF by the end of this week.

Has anyone heard back from Latham post SJT for the 2023 TC?
I applied in December and still have not heard back 🙃
I have only seen one person hear back so far? They are sure taking their time!
Hey everyone,
On a couple of firm websites, they have specified a desire/need for prospective trainees to have completed the 'City electives' during the LPC of Equity Finance, Debt Finance and Private Acquisitions.
I did Corporate Finance as an elective. Does anyone know if this would be considered an appropriate substitute for either of (or both) the finance modules? I studied at BPP Holborn btw, and the elective covers elements of both debt and equity finance.

If you check on your FF application portal, it'll show its been updated today. I called again (lol) and we all definitely will hear today
definitely a PFO for meI have completed a couple of virtual internships on firm's websites. Should these be included in my applications/ are they enough to take up a work experience section of the form?
Good question, and to follow this up, would that kind of experience classify as legal work experience?
That is the only form of 'legal' experience I have right now, so I am interested in the answer as well.
