WEIL VS OFFER!! 😱😱😍

Anyone heard back from HSF post-AC this is for the spring scheme?

 

[AW_08]

Has anyone heard from MB since the job stimulation/VI? I know a few people got PFOs last week, but not seen anyone with positive news!

 

[GXA123]

Late to the news but Gowling AC🥲

Congrats! what office? and what was your score?

 

[JoeyTr]

Anyone heard back from AG London?

 

[SOAS22]

Anyone heard back from DWF?

Does anyone have any tips for questions at the end of the interview that I can tailor to the practice area of the interviewer? I don’t know the interviewers’ practices but might prepare the main ones just incase

Anyone who got the Reed Smith holding email over the weekend heard back from them this week? (Slightly asking this to manifest a reply for us all today)

I think no one who received the holding email has heard anything yet. I guess they are just waiting to mass eliminate us together 😅 Can't see any silver lining from this waiting given the first AC slot is taking place in 4 days I believe???

FYI when I booked my Gowling AC yesterday there were only 2 slots so I think they’re sending them out in batches 😊

It does feel like an impending doom day 😅

You don’t have to tailor your questions to the interviewers practice area, especially if it isn’t an area you are actually that interested in.

The interview is about you, not about them, and so your questions do not need to be tailored to them unless they are also relevant/important to you.

Surely if we were all getting rejected by then they would have just done it by now? Am I being overly optimistic? 😂

Do firms tend to send out ACs to law and non-law candidates separately / in different batches?

I reeeeeaaallly hope you're right. I don't see the point in them holding off when they know it'll be a PFO so there is still hope 🤞
