Does anyone know if it’s okay to mention a deal that another office (like Dubai one) from the same firm made as a reason for why the firm ? I’m not sure if it will be a disadvantage if I’m applying to the London office but mentioning a transaction made by the Dubai one

Anyone completed the Burges Salmon AC, and can provide tips? Super nervous about the in person Watson Glaser

Yet to hear anything from Addleshaw Goddard (Manchester) post VI - anyone else in a similar boat?

I’m really sorry but I think they’ve done all the assessment centres for Manchester now! When I had mine I had to reschedule and they said they were only holding 2 and that if I couldn’t make either I could be converted to the direct TC app as the only option so I changed plans and went to the second which was a few weeks ago!

Who knows though they may not have filled all the spaces and will hold another AC in future

I emailed them today morning. This was their response "Thanks very much for your email. We are still in the process of reviewing applications and will be in touch in due course with an update on your application."

Just tidying up my Winston answers before I send them.

For the first question: Why have you applied to Winston & Strawn London LLP for a vacation scheme placement? (250 words or less)

Did people explicitly refer to the vs, my answer focuses more on why Winston, as opposed to what I would get from a VS. I don't know whether to bolt a mini-para on the end explaining why I want to participate in the VS. Thoughts?

I am unable to find the questionnaire, where can I download it from?

was this post app or interview?

Post-app, but given what's been said, I think it'll be a PFO for me

I think they do ACs while still handing out offers if I’m not mistaken?
