Does anyone know when we hear back from Greenberg Traurig (GT) post-AC? the wait is killing me

 

[spamelinazoid]

For BM, if what is said is true about one wave of applicants advancing to the AC and no PFOs have gone out yet, I am more inclined to think there is a chance it's done in at least two waves. Especially, since past cycles have included more than one AC.

Lets stay strong and give it until the end of next week before losing hope.

They usually do 4-6 ACs

The fact that TC applications are sounding like we are all at war is really getting to me, lmfao it shouldn’t be like this hahaha

I hate that the TC process is so not transparent. It is really frustrating that it has become normalised for law firms to keep applicants in the dark. Like with Ashurst, if they were handing out ACs long ago, why not give out PFOs.

Hi,

Would anyone be interested in checking each others’ written responses and give feedback? I really need an outside perspective!

Has anyone heard from RS or an estimate of when they'll start sending out ACs or PFOs? I sent my app out nearly 3 weeks ago

Someone I know got an AC invite around first week of July last year, so maybe around that time period?

 

[Aspiringlawyer_]

Sorry to ask again but still nothing from KN? Anyone? The wait is killing me

I’m waiting to hear back too. Hopefully they’ll let us know by the end of the day

I would think so, as the first screening calls are supposed to be on Wednesday—getting a bit stressed

Have ppl done VI and gotten rejected?

 

[Willgetatc]

Are FF invites rolling or is that it?

I think that's it from prior DTC posts

 

[soon-to-be trainee]

They usually do 4-6 ACs

I think they are hosting 2 ACs next week but I am not sure if there will be more to follow.

Last year people got AC invites early/mid july but the deadline was later than this year so I'm hoping we'll hear back in the next couple of weeks. They are rolling bit usually don't send AC invites before their deadline I think and it was this week

 

[LH4]

Has anyone heard from Bates wells or Penningtons post app? For London office direct tc

Which stage are you referring to? As in following the submission of your written application question stage?
