Finally got the email, I'm through to the next stage for KN!!

Congrats! Do you have any tips or guidance on how to structure the video presentation / what content you addressed as I've not been able to progress past this stage twice now so would really appreciate any guidance for next year!

Congratulations! Same here. Didn't think my video presentation went very well, delighted to have gotten through though *sigh of relief*.

Ashurst Interview!!!

Congratulations, when did you apply if you don't mind me asking?

Anyone still waiting on Mayer Brown?

Same, Does this mean it’s a PFO if others have already gone through?

congrats. noob here. is this after the case study?

Yes it was after the written case study

 

[Raspberry44]

Congrats and good luck! If they are already sending out interview invites, does this mean they are done with the online case study stage? 🥲

Thank you! I have no clue, these things are never really clear :/ I hope you get it!

Baker McKenzie DTC AC post VI!! I didn’t think the VI went well at all so this has really caught me off guard honestly. 😅

This was my first ever DTC application and will be my first DTC AC. Does anyone know how much different this would be to a VS AC? 🥲

Best of luck to everyone who is currently waiting post VI! I genuinely thought mine was atrocious so don't lose hope just yet! 🙂​

Assuming it’s likely a PFO if we haven’t heard from Baker McKenzie now then?

What day did you apply if you don’t mind telling me?

last day, and still waiting!

Seems likely, though you never know. Their ACs last year ran until mid June…
