Message: <blockquote data-quote="Andrei Radu" data-source="post: 218127" data-attributes="member: 36777">Freshfields seems to have changed its recruitment system this year by removing their personal statement requirement. I assume that as a result of this, the other criteria the firm looks at (experiences in CV, grades, performance in online tests) to be weighed more heavily than before in the decision-making process. While somewhat surprising, this also comes in the context of the firm undergoing a more general rebrand as it aims to leave the "Magic Circle" label behind and be classified alongside top US firms in the newly formed so-called "Global Elite". Over in the US, recruitment definitely is a lot more simplified than in the UK, with no lengthy review of written answers or video interview performances. As such, it may be that the more seamless and simplified application track is a reflection of this change in its brand image and philosophy (remember that last year Freshfields also simplified its name by dropping the "Bruckhaus Derringer" from it).</blockquote>

Verification: Our company is called, "The Corporate ___ Academy". What is the missing word here?
