Anybody heard back from Paul Hastings?
Just asking since they said they'll only contact successful candidates post app, so quite hard to tell if & when they might get back to us

Completely biased as I reported into Ben at Freshfields and he is one of the nicest partners I have ever met, but I use this book regularly - most weeks I will use it in some capacity to check how to write something:Does anyone have any suggestions for a good grammar book? Sounds stupid but I’m keen to just brush up on my writing skills

Thanks so much Jessica! I really think it’s no bad thing to always have a grammar book to check up with
This is amazing news - I had a feeling it was only a matter of time. Congratulations and well done!
Thank you so much Jessica, and thanks again for all your help and advice, it's really been invaluable (not just directly to me but when I've read your advice to other people as well).
Thank you for the kind words- I'm used to it though, they're just one firm!Oh no. So sorry to hear that. Are you ok- I know how it feels !
