Does anyone know how long Freshfields usually takes to reply post interview?

I’ve heard it’s about 3 weeks

Helloo

what time do firms stop sending emails? I always thought they stopped at 5pm for some weird reason 💀

Firms? Never.

Grad Rec? Usually COB (technically around 5:30-6:00), unless they’ve decided to work past that.

Linklaters AC for Summer Vac Scheme!

Congratss!

Does this mean all AC's are likely filled already for the spring VS and should assume a PFO?

 

[CorporateLaw101]

Anyone know how long the Mayer Brown tests take to complete roughly? Are they similar to links CAPP?

Congrats! I see someone getting AC for summer placement at linklaters, great news!

Ah ok! No need to jump everyone I get an email for the next week or so atleast 🤣

 

[CorporateLaw101]

@Jessica Booker Random question but if firms fill their spring VACs do they consider spring applicants for summer placements or are they dealt with completely separately?

Congratulations!! Which characteristics did you get for the CAPP if you don't mind me asking?

 

[CorporateLaw101]

Linklaters AC for Summer Vac Scheme!

Massive congrats! Seems like the first summer AC in the forum this cycle, we should celebrate 🎉

manifesting positive vibes and hoping we all get summer ACs!

[Asil Ahmad]

Does anyone know if Latham send out VI in batches or all on the same day.

Anyone else still waiting to hear back from NRF post TI?

EDIT: / Has anyone received a PFO yet post TI?

I haven’t heard back yet.. TI on 4 Jan

 

[golden99]

Anyone still not heard from eversheds London office. I saw a couple of people lost they had a vi, but not as many as would have been expected. I’m hoping they are sending them out in batches (I don’t know why wouldn’t just send them all out at the same time though)
