The systems are typically sophisticated enough to pick up duplicates across names and cross referencing other key data that would remain the same, so this isn’t a fool proof approach.Thank for letting me know!
Sorry I forgot to mention that she used a different email. I think using a different email should be safe. Cause like you said, worse case scenario I’ll just be straight up rejected.
Is that for the TC or VC?Just to come to an ac in may - I was placed on reserve for the summer scheme
I still haven't received a WG invite, have you ?anyone apply near the Baker McKenzie deadline and get a WG invite yet?
When did you submit your application and how long did you wait to receive WG invite ?Completed Baker McKenzie Watson Glaser yesterday 24th April. No email recognising completion of application.
Graduate recruitment email says you will find out as soon as possible but later also says you will find out within 2 weeks.
Anyone received anything else after completing WG?
Have you received WG invite or you're still waiting ?Is Baker McKenzie strictly rolling? I applied for the TC at 8pm deadline day and worried it was all for nothing...
I still haven't received a WG invite, have you ?
Yep, received it last week and did it this week. Now waiting for an outcomeHave you received WG invite or you're still waiting ?
A graduate visa will only help you with doing vacation schemes in the U.K. - it won’t help you with a TC as it won’t cover the period of time needed for the TC. Obviously converting a VS with potentially help your chances of securing a TC, but if you plan to work in your home country, I don’t think it will be a worthwhile investment if you are not planning to stay in the U.K for the short term.@Jessica Booker I am in my final year of law and have been unsuccessful in securing a vacation scheme in London this cycle. I have been offered a placement in my home country as a legal associate, however, I would like to continue applying for direct training contracts while I am at this role. I was curious whether opting for a graduate visa would aid in this process and improve my odds of securing a direct TC. All the firms I will be applying to, do sponsor international students, and as the graduate visa is costly, I was wondering if investing in one would be worth it?
Surely, they'll send PFOs and VI invites this week as it's already May?It has been two weeks since I finished the Baker WG, still no news lol
Thank you, Jessica, this is incredibly helpful!A graduate visa will only help you with doing vacation schemes in the U.K. - it won’t help you with a TC as it won’t cover the period of time needed for the TC.
