Has anyone heard from Sidley for Winter VS? I know I submitted my app relatively recently, but as they operate on rolling basis would be keen to know when people start hearing back
Has anyone received an AC invite from HSF yet?
Hi! I received an AC invite from HSF for their winter vac scheme on tuesday!
Congratulations! Wishing you the best of luck for it. May I ask when you applied please?

Has anyone heard back from Linklaters Winter VS yet?
You should hear back within 15 working days. I heard back after about that long, did my VI a few weeks ago and haven't heard anything else thus far

Hi, I’m trying prepare for an interview with a big city law firm that is strong in most practice areas, and I’m really struggling trying to find a specific news story that has an impact on the firm (if the question comes up)
Anyone know how specific the news story should be that I mention? For example I thought that the huge rise in m&a transactions is a big one but is that too obvious / not specific enough?
Plus, I’m just not sure how to analyse a news story in a way that links it to law firms? (Is it as obvious as just, which law departments it’ll involve/ it might create more business)? Any help much appreciated

It doesn’t carry over, I am pretty sure you have to complete the Watson Glaser again. Only firm I know of who rolls over the result is Clifford Chance
Just did the Clyde & Co VI assessment and could shoot myself in the face. I feel like it didn't make any sense. This is my first VI so not holding out too much hope but would be nice to advance through to the next stage
I won't disclose any questions, but it is genuinely something you cannot prepare for and there are no right answers.
You need to complete three questions at the end, which are also quite difficult so my advice would be to research the firm as much as possible.
Good luck to anyone else doing this 💪💪💪

I just got my feedback report for clyde VI (no outcome yet), did anyone else? Does that mean they reviewed my video answers or..?
I submitted last Sat but haven’t received mine - does it look like auto generated or was it personalised?
