Is there much point applying to Sidley unless you've got a first from Cambridge, an MBA and President of every society under the sun at uni?
I applied and got invited to interview with a 2:1 from Durham (average of 64%), but rejected them, as I decided US law wasn't for me. Happy to share my application if you'd like?

LinkedIn Etiquette: what is the general feeling about the LinkedIn trend of « incoming vac scheme at… »?
Is it perceived as too much? like would it be better to simply wait for the actual VS to happen then put that on LinkedIn?
Trust your instinct with this as there is no wrong or right way to go about it. Worst case scenario, if the vac scheme doesn't happen, you can simply remove it.

find it quite funny how my DLA Piper app (London) still hasnt been updated post wg.. last update was when i initially submitted my app. kinda sucks to know they probably didnt even read my app even though i never received a pfo.. or anything?! from what it seems like all ACs are done or spots filled but just strange to not have any closure.
I got a pfo post-WG for DLA but for Manchester office. Maybe the London office havent reviewed some WGs yet? I got the pfo within about 3 days after, wouldn’t it be strange for some offices to send out pfos and another office just ignore?
