Clyde & Co TC offer post-Spring VS!

Thank you all for the help over the past couple of years, this forum has been the most influential when it came to working on my application and interview technique. Good luck to everyone, wishing the best for you all 🤞🏼🥳

Anyone know how long W&C take to reply post AC? They said at the end of the interview I should expect to hear within 1 to 2 weeks, but it’s been almost 3 weeks now and I still haven’t heard anything.

Should I presume that’s bad news?

Has anyone got a response from Grad Rec about when they'll be getting back to people post-AC?

Anyone heard any news from Stephenson Harwood? I applied for their summer VS in October and still no word... I have emailed before asking for updates so need someone else to take one for the team now 😅

I believe they are on the written exercise / interview stage right now and hoping to conclude the entire process by mid-May

Browne Jacobson PFO post- TI. Make that two ACs, two TIs and one VI. It seems that whenever recruitment get the chance to hear or see me its a rejection🤬🤬

I am just mentally exhausted at this point😔

‘The interest for places on our 2023 summer vacation scheme has been significant and calibre of applications has been exceptionally high, so you can perhaps count yourself a little unlucky that the competition this year is so high.’

I am wailing at this. What an odd thing to say
