I did an interview with them on Monday. Applied on 29/01 and heard back on 30/01. Now waiting to hear back post interview. Good luck hopefully they get back to you with some good news soon!

Are you expecting it today then? I received the email about it being reviewed by parters last friday
I haven’t but pretty sure they were interviewing in Jan!
Did anyone else receive a new wgt invitation (due on Sunday) from Freshfields after having completed it today?
I know someone that completed hers yesterday . Didn’t receive the WGT test re-invitation though.
However, did you get the “Assessment Confirmation” email after you took the test. I’m guessing your results didn’t come in.
Yes, received as I was doing the test and then got the confirmation of assessment complete email, so think it's just a mistake. Went straight to 'assessment period closed' page.
When sending Brown Rudnick a query with regards to eligibility for their TC, I used the following email from which they replied back too: [email protected]. I think the response came from the US though, hope this helps
So did I but it said that we expect to hear backwihtin the next week so I assume it was suppose to be this week?
I received a tc offer a few days ago verbally over the phone from CMS but haven’t received any follow up email with a contract/offer? Should I be worried/is this normal guys? Also interested to know what occurs during the process of the verbal offer and receiving the formal documents. Not sure what to do!

This is very normal. If you haven’t heard anything by the end of next week, I would drop them an email or give them a call and ask the approximate timeframes as to when you may receive the offer letter.
Bristows, please don't ruin my Friday - has anybody had comms in yet?
I've just received confirmation and I applied around 2200 on the day!
Has anyone heard back from Hogan Lovells post-WGT?
I sent them an email asking for an update and nothing lol.
@Jessica Booker Hey Jessica, do you think it would be a good idea to call them rather than emailing them? As there has been no updates, including replies to emails, since October?
Why have you decided to pursue a career as a commercial lawyer working in an international law firm? What factors and influences have affected your decision?
Why specifically are you interested in training at Orrick? What makes us different to the other firms you have applied for?
Apart from these questions, there's a separate section for writing a cover letter. What's the difference between the above-mentioned questions and a cover letter? Ain't the answers to these questions form a part of cover letter?🤔 Then why a separate question?

A cover letter doesn’t have to cover why law/why the firm in these instances.
You can just focus your cover letter on why you.
Does anyone have advice on trick, ethical “PM in a driverless car” type questions. I understand you can’t prep for them but any guidance on how to go about them will be super helpful?
