Any Ropes & Gray news? It’s not been long since closing so I’m just curious haha
Yeah they'll probably send a mix of rejections and AC's by Friday I believe (since they said all applicants should hear back by the end of the week) - well I'm hopeful anyway.Do you guys think Reed Smith is likely to send out another batch for AC invites?
They are different questions to me.Hey @Jessica Booker, is the question of why should we offer you a place the same as why do you want to work at this firm? Or are they looking for different things?
This also shows that sometimes candidates are the own worst critic.Can't believe this one, but Addleshaw Goddard VS offer!
(Glasgow/Edinburgh - Spring/Summer)
Guess it shows that even the worst interviews with the worst case study performances can also have a chance 🥳
Does anyone know what the format is for DWF's VI? Also do they ask any commercial awareness questions?
for those who got a debevoise open day - did it allow you to book a day or were you allocated a certain day? Not sure if they are sending out open invites day by day maybe?
All invites were sent out on Monday at the same time I assume. There was an option of 3 dates on a first come first served basis with a deadline to reply by tomorrow.for those who got a debevoise open day - did it allow you to book a day or were you allocated a certain day?

The first step is to do some self analysis and be honest with yourself as to what you need to improve on. Make sure it has some relevancy to the type of firm/work you would be doing though.@Jessica Booker Can you please highlight how to answer questions focusing on an individuals weakness. need some inspiration please.
Thank you! Is that even if the dates do not actually clash?I basically said that I had another offer that clashed but I really wanted to do the scheme at firm x and I was eager to know an earlier update to be able to choose firm x. I would just try to be very gracious and appreciative of even being offered the interview or final assessment centre in the first place and ask for an update. I would say that this is effective after 2 full weeks of waiting, especially if they did not tell you when to expect to hear back.
post apppost app or test?
Me too...I guess reusing last year's application is not a good strategy...Kennedys PFO
Congrats! Was your first preference summer or spring? Many thanksW&C VI invite! Would anyone who has already taken it be able to offer any advice? Any advice on what sort of questions they ask would be really appreciated
