Strange, I had mine last Monday and have not heard anything. But congrats!

I'm equally surprised as my AC was last Tues and I still have not heard anything...

After I had an email this week to say they will inform us by the end of the week, which is only the case for some it seems. I have literally just got of the phone with them and they said they are sorry for delays etc etc. everyone will know the outcome on Monday or Tuesday

Has anyone heard from Simmons and Simmons after the VI for WVS?

Thank-you for calling! This situation is strange - surely it makes more sense to notify people in the order in which they were interviewed?

As you know, the wait after interview is so draining! Really hope we get some good news next week!

Cleary Winter VS offer! Thanks everyone here for your help.

I also wrote White & Case earlier this week to ask them if they were still giving out ACs post the VI, they wrote me back today saying they are still reviewing and they aim to notify all AC participants by the end of next week.

Appreciate the kind words, thank you! and congrats on getting there in the end!

For me it was 4th time lucky, so fingers crossed it will be for you too!

 

[S30]

Very strange!

Thank you so much, that is very kind of you. Wishing you all the best with your app as well as your other applications!

Thank you Nicole!

If the deadline for a video interview is 22nd November GMT, do we i have to submit before midnight on the 22nd or the 21st?

 

[Numerius Negidius]

Seems like no movement one way or another since that run of PFOs the other day. Not expecting any news til next week at this point.

Starting to think the ACs might have already gone out... there's only two weeks left until the vac scheme!

 

[futuretraineecity]

Not sure if this is the right thread but I was wondering if anyone has a structure they follow for open day applications? Should it similarly be structured like a cover letter? I never really know how to approach it compared to VS apps

It will be 23.59 on the 22 November

Possible but I doubt it - generally find that with any given scheme at least one person on this forum will report back positively when AC/interview invites go out.

anyone who applied to Latham, does your work simulation assessment test say 'finished' on the status part? Worried that maybe it didn't submit when i did it and so I missed the deadline...

If you’re referring to the VI for CMS, it means 11:59 on 22 November.

Does anyone know whether the Deloitte summer VC is only for students in their penultimate or final year? I am a post-graduate, and i'm not sure whether i'm eligible..

Unfortunately you are ineligible to apply.

double checking that when NRF says app is due 21st that means 11:59 on the 21st?

Can't speak to NRF specifically but that's generally what firms mean with a closing date unless they specify otherwise

23.59 on the 21st (just for complete clarity).
