Anybody know when Travers will get back?

Last year I applied on the deadline (mid Jan) and heard back in the first week of April

Should I assume PFO if I still haven't heard from Taylor Wessing?

Should I assume PFO if I still haven't heard from Taylor Wessing?

I wouldn't yet - since they're calling people, I imagine it'll take a few days to get through everyone?

From what was said during my call earlier, I think they're planning on calling until tomorrow evening at least

Has anyone heard back from Linklaters, spring ?

Anyone (not fast tracked) heard from Linklaters spring? I know a couple of open day attendees had booked their AC slot

anyone else feeling quite stressed about this whole process? most of my firms haven’t gotten back to me yet, and it’s really challenging to fight the urge to consistently check emails/email graduate recruitment. obviously my main priority is my degree, but it’s definitely terrifying to consider what happens if i do not secure a vacation scheme and convert it into a training contract.

yeah definitely, it's getting to the point where i feel like i'm neglecting my academics because i feel like if i dont get a TC this year it will be the end of the world lol

Yep. I've been checking emails constantly for the last 2 weeks and I'm still waiting to hear from like 8-9 firms. Hard to juggle potential applications with exams around the January period as well. I'm hoping that by the start of February when I restart Uni lectures I will have more clarity so I won't have to be worrying.
