Has anyone hear back from HFW? I applied in December but have not heard anything back yet

 

[Amy Lucy]

Did anyone who got the Taylor Wessing AC recieve confirmation of their slot yet after filling in the form??

No i did not get confirmation. i think they will figure out preferences and then let us know our slots.

Has anyone heard from Withers? They say they start reviewing a month before the deadline closes and I’ve not heard anything yet haha

I received the online assessment invite on 16th Jan and applied on 12th Jan. I'm not sure if it's automatic or not ) but the email says 'you've been successful in getting through to the next stage'

Thank you and good luck for the assessment! You applied a couple of days before me so here’s hoping to some news in the next couple days

Thank you!! I hope you'll hear from them this week

For us still waiting for Latham, is it only the summer vac scheme apps left? I'm guessing they deal with spring first, then summer. Hoping for a wave of ACs for all of us rather than a wave of PFOs!

I did the BCLP test yday and still haven't received a feedback report - I have checked all folders, including my junk. Should I be worried?

Haven’t heard from DLA Leeds for 11 weeks after hearing that I’m shortlisted for an AC and it is driving me crazy !!!! Anyone heard yet?

are there any in house vac schemes?

 

[Sunshinepink]

are there any in house vac schemes?

I would really like to know this too. I saw a paralegal job at a very luxurious fashion brand and now I'm curious about in house training contracts/vacation schemes.

 

[missingh]

are there any in house vac schemes?

i'm currently on a year long in-house internship i remember a year or 2 ago i applied to an in-house summer internship at a bank. I think with in-house they tend to be longer than vac scheme lengths, defo keep a look out for summer internships and stuff!
