It’s also been great for graduates too! I didn’t know I wanted to go into corporate law when I was at uni and the shift to online events has been amazing (especially because they work around my work hours!) though I do miss Legal Cheeks’ events at firms and getting to chat face-to-face with trainees/partners!

I am sorry to hear that but don't worry you only need 1 yes.pfo from Bird & Bird---- greaaaaaat
So sorry to hear. Keep going you’ll get there 🤩pfo from Bird & Bird---- greaaaaaat
I’m yet to hear back from them post-VI, may I ask when you applied ?
Fully agree! Being able to set up my personal laptop on a break to watch the grad rec events is a game changer. I hope it’s here to stay!
Does this mean everyone who applied to macfarlanes will probably hear back today?
No, law firms could mention this and never reply it depends on the number of apps they received ... etc
I just want them to give me my PFO and stop daaaangling me.
Also it feels like it was just yesterday that I was frantically pounding back low calorie red bulls and getting my macfarlanes application together. Absolutely mad that it’s almost been 2 weeks.

Everytime I see someone post about BLM on here, I keep thinking they’re talking about the activist group. If only. I’d love to work for Black Lives Matter.
How do ppl feel about NRF’s Business and Legal operations scheme? I can’t tell if I’m allowed to apply for both that and a training contract (I’m a final year law student so can’t apply for their vac scheme)
There are actually a couple firms that set up programmes to have some associates undertake multi-year stints at civil rights orgs in the wake of George Floyd's murder (I want to say Orrick and Freshfields but I'm hazy on that) - so you never know!
If I don’t hear from them today I am assuming rejection.
You probably can apply to both, but I'd be wary as I reckon that could call into question your motivation for/commitment to each.
Ngl I thought it was super hard but I made it to AC! For the tests I just practiced the ones they recommend but just as a pre-warning, I found the real ones to be harder (especially the verbal reasoning). For the written exercise I'd just say be aware of the time to make sure you can finish. For the VI, they're pretty standard questions tbh so nothing out of the ordinary. Good luck!
As their AC is going to be held in late January, not hearing today prob means i didnt get it
