I emailed HSF grad recruitment earlier and they said you have 7 days from when you get the link to complete the test & it doesn't have to be before the deadline, just to let you guys know

You are very right- I just emailed them to double check and got it wrong!
Sorry, I got confused between them and Links!
No worries
I just was emailing them about something else then saw this so thought I'd let you know!
For me I never got the outcome of the test, just that I progressed. Strange
Just received an email that I passed the A&O SJT, I completed it yesterday for anyone waiting ☺️
Is it definitely going ahead at all? I can't seem to locate any up-to-date information on their website.
Just an FYI on A&O- I just called them to check my application and SJT which I completed on 16th September. I hadn't received a confirmation email after completing the test and the grad rec confirmed that I had completed it and I was just waiting to be reviewed. So don't panic yet- there's still hope!
Hi everyone,
I am struggling with CMS's application questions and was wondering if anyone could help me out. For reference the questions are...
For the second question, I was wondering where I can find out more about CMS's strategy? I found a section about it on their website and looked at their annual report but I feel there isn't a lot of information about it.
Thank you!
I am struggling with CMS's application questions and was wondering if anyone could help me out. For reference the questions are...
- Focusing on one of CMS’s sectors, what opportunities have arisen in the ‘new ways of working’ and current business climate? (200 words)
- In your own words, explain one key strategy that CMS is implementing to become the leading relationship law firm. (200 words)

I'm in the middle of writing my application for the winter vac scheme at A&O, and had a couple of queries.
Firstly, is it likely that, if I get the application in in the next few hours and do the SJT tomorrow, that I've left it too late (and that I should focus instead on a summer VS application)? I'm aware that the "two-thirds" point in the application window was recently passed, but am hopeful that many will leave their applications until the beginning of October.
Secondly, do either of the following things count as work experience (to include on the Experience section of applications)?
- Bright Network Commercial Law Internship Experience (mostly made up of speeches by law firms, but also involved a work task set over the course of a day
- carrying out research for an upcoming health law journal article, co-authored by an academic and specialist in the field

According to this (https://www.chambersstudent.co.uk/latham-watkins/true-picture/234/1##bonus), no - but they have recruited on a rolling basis in previous years.hi, does anyone know whether latham recruits their winter VS on a rolling basis? thank you!
Okay - Gowling is really trying to melt my brain with this one.
Please tell us, if you worked for a commercial law firm and had to deliver a client pitch, what would the client want you to cover to enable them to make a decision on who they instruct?
It just feels very broad, it doesn’t even specify taking about the firm, though I’m assuming they want that.
Do they want us to pick a specific sector, or just a general overview of what makes the firm unique/why they should pick Gowling?
Which would be really difficult as I don’t just want to write a long list of why they’re a great firm (they are, but they already know that!) lol
Any advice would be greatly appreciated 💕
