Good ole withers🤣🤣"If you were a character in a video game, what kind of game would it be" is a super fun question until you're on your fourth app of the day with 10 minutes until deadline and find yourself espousing the merits of being minecraft steve and likening major casualties in wet shipping to creepers
same, writing the apps for harbottle & lewis + lewis silkin at the same time was such a risky play. I am refusing to save my applications bc I know I will find "harbottle & lewis silkin" somewhere lolapplied for 5 firms today… not saying any of them were good, but i did something- just wish i didn’t leave it so late that i get heart palpitations
appropriate bc i'm fully withering awayGood old withers🤣🤣
Ahhh okay, thank you so much!They said we should get a feedback report within a week - so you’ll not receive anything immediately
I did it last Thursday so hopefully I’ll get it tomorrow🤔
Yes summeromg congrats!! 🙌
Was this for summer VS?
Hey congrats! When did you get the AC invite?Might anyone who's done a Latham & Watkins AC recently be willing to get in touch with me? I'll be so so immensely grateful
If academics were the only measure, then yes, someone with a higher performance will be consider a stronger candidate. But there are lots of different factors that create a good candidate, and clearly the firm doesn’t need to see a strong academic background alone, and can see strength in other aspects of the application.@Jessica Booker If a firm has no minimum grade requirements, will those with a high-performing track record be seen more favourable during the application process than somebody with less impressive grades?
Wdym by didn't factor in actual score?To anyone that has done NRF's arctic shores assessment, do you know how your performance is assessed? I was a bit traumatised after taking Gowling's version and finding out that they didn't factor in your actual 'score' in the games. Is NRF the same? Am considering whether or not it would be a good use of my time to make an application, especially if I can't really practise for the arctic shores assessment.
This is something i fear! i only have 14 days of annual leave left for the year (as I've booked holidays) for my Ac's my manager as told me to use annual leave so the more Ac's i get the less i'll be able to do a VS as i will have no time off anymore! I've just decided i will have the flu on the week i have a 1 week vac scheme so i "can't" go to work and I'll decline if I get a 2 week one and ask to be forwarded to direct TC application if they allow it.Hi everyone. I have accepted a vac scheme at a firm that only recruits trainees through its vac schemes. As I am currently working full-time, I have limited annual leave days which means that I cannot complete any more vac schemes alongside the one I have accepted. When should I let the other firms I have applied to (all of which do take trainees through the direct TC route) know about my situation to see if I can convert my vac scheme application into a direct TC one. I’m not sure whether to let them know now or further along/at the end of the assessment process. I would appreciate any help on this! @Jessica Booker
It was for Manchester and I applied on 15th DecemberCongrats! Is this for London and may I ask when you applied?
