[QUOTE="billyonthespeeddial, post: 214939, member: 27428"] I had it for a while. Here are my thoughts: - I didn't find anything written (e.g. application guides and law firm profiles) useful for writing applications or interviews. They contain lots of info but really all you need to know is on Chambers Student and Legal 500. - Most of the more formal video series were great. I liked the series on PE, on situational judgement interviews, and the case studies and video guides attached. If you have interviews coming up where these types of content may be useful, I would consider it. - Application review (which you get once a month for free) is very thorough, but is not done by a recruitment specialist, but rather another candidate who's secured a TC. It was useful, but not more credible than your friend from two years above who's got a TC. I understand (discounted?) mock interviews are also done by future trainees, not recruitment specialists. (Not that any of this is falsely advertised) - The additional stuff this year, like Accelerator, seemed OK but not super necessary. I never fully used this one though, for full transparency [/QUOTE]
