You can request it whenever, it shouldn't impact your application one way or the other

Thanks!

Has anyone heard from White and Case? Roughly how long did it talk y’all to get a video interview after your application?

 

[Anoned]

What's the Simmons written exercise about?? Is this something new they've added? Any advice?

It's an article, you get 12 minutes to read it and then summarise some key points.

CC AC!

Hey - congratulations! May I ask when you applied?

BCLP video interview for the 2023 training contract. Does anyone have any experience/tips for it?

Are they still recruiting for 2023? I thought they were mostly recruiting for 2024 now

Don’t think so. They do provide a test report straight after taking the test.

Can anyone give me tips for the Clyde VI

 

[rose0904]

does anyone know if you need to prep a commercial answer for the simmons VI? (e.g., recent new story etc.)

 

[Asil Ahmad]

Does anyone have any advice for the A&O SJT test such as what advice for the numerical element of the test. Also is it like HSF SJT where there are right answers or is it like Linklaters CAPP test where it is competency-based such as looking at your com[etencies rather than a right answer. Thank you in advance for any help.

research the firm really well, know why you want to work their and what practice areas interests you, be prepared for a couple of situational scenarios and brush up on your skills. The interview is quiet long so take breaks in between and take it easy. I would also recommend keeping the firm's values next to you as you there are many questions relating to these. And good luck!

 

[F99]

Anyone know when Links AC will be roughly (for Spring VS)?

Guys do you know how to navigate the A&O app, it does not let me go back and amend certain parts.

When you get to the end (99%) of the form it lets you go back and review/amend sections
