Thank youLay off mate, sounds like you’re just looking for an argument. He was just making an observation. Just because you’ve had different experiences doesn’t make you right either, by the way.

Everyone is entitled to freedom of speech. Not looking for an argument at all. Well an observation which is definitely inaccurate…Lay off mate, sounds like you’re just looking for an argument.

Thank you and remind me to offer you some good wine!not to prolong this argument any further, but what s87 said was not “definitely inaccurate.”
law firms are very aware that black lawyers are underrepresented in the profession. diversity initiatives are tailored, in part, to remedy the problem. at present, it’s not clear just how successful such efforts have been in addressing said underrepresentation and we need further data on the matter. that being said, there is a wealth of empirical scholarship which examines barriers to the legal profession for black Americans and black Britons. and there is strong reason to think there is under representation.
pointing to the handful of black lawyers you know (or have read about at firms you like) doesn’t undermine this point - and it’s more likely that your sample size is biased.
but what do I know? i’m just an aspiring wine mum
I would assume it just means your degree (if obtained). However, ask Vero to confirm what they need if you are unsure.@Jessica Booker
If Vero onboarding needs to verify my "highest education" does this mean just university results or GCSE/A Levels as well (can't locate my certificates for these!)
I really don’t think it’s as binary as either/or. You could use a range of different methods to present your thinking too.Is a SWOT/Pestle analysis for M&A case studies generally liked by firms? It's a concept I originally came across in like GCSE Business, so worried it may be seen as overly-simplistic? Also is there one that firms tend to prefer out of the two approaches? Would appreciate your thoughts @Jessica Booker !
Here you go:Would anyone be able to direct me to the list of 100 or so interview questions on here? Can't seem to find it

Here is what you need to know about securing a training contract this year.classes.thecorporatelawacademy.com
Mine is on tmr? Have you completed it?Has anyone done the Osborne Clarke AC yet?
I am really sorry to hear this! I tested positive for covid before my AC too and it was not fun. The first thing I did was let graduate recruitment know and see if I could be moved (in my case this wasn’t possible). I also mentioned it to my interviewers. Honestly listen to your body, if you think you can do all three then get lots of rest and drink lots of water (the adrenaline pushes you through the AC!). I had several hot drinks by my side, drank paracetamol and had some fruits to snack on in between the different parts of my AC which helped!Argh, I just tested positive for COVID and have three ACs this week - today, tomorrow and Thursday. Could not be worse timing! I am feeling pretty rotten and struggling to talk as my throat is so sore. Am not sure what to do.
Call today’s firm as soon as possible to explain the situation. They will understand and if they can offer you another date they will. It will only be if they are filling booked up for other dates that they may not be able to offer you an alternative.Argh, I just tested positive for COVID and have three ACs this week - today, tomorrow and Thursday.

Once you have spoken to today’s firm call the other firms to do the same.
You haven’t really got the time to rely on email, so definitely call.
