Hi all

I've been invited to interview for Slaughters DTC (non-law), and it's my first ever interview, so I'd really appreciate any insights!!

TIA <3

Has anyone heard back from Greenberg Traurig (GT) since their interview in March? They said they would get back before 13th April and am now thinking this is a PFO?

I thought they said we’d hear the week of 13th April not before?

I haven't had a response yet. The recruitment brochure says that interviews for direct TC's will take place in March and April. So if we don't hear back by the end of this month we can expect an eventual PFO.

@lowkeyloser Okay. Thank you for your reply.

Brabners AC!

What office?

I had a look at last years thread and it seems they closed apps on 24 Feb, sent ACs March 27 and PFOs March 31, with ACs held on the 6, 7 and 8 of April, and final int invites sent out about 2 weeks or so later and held in May.

Obvs this year the deadline was 30 March but they still plan on holding ACs in April and final int int’s in May. So I imagine ACs would be out latest next Friday I think. But people might’ve heard back from K&S alr and just haven’t posted lmao.

Guess we’ll find out soon enough. It’s only 4 TCs so it’s gna be proper tough and selective. Hoping it’s a miracle AC though ngl that’d be so cool!​

Could be later if the turnaround is only 1 week from invite to AC day

From what I've heard there is an amberjack and a VI beforehand.
