I really don’t want to diminish anyone else’s achievements as know how hard people work, but what I find really difficult on here is when people post that they’re trying to decide between two VS offers or even being in the position to turn down one because of a clash with another.

I would kill for one VS. It’s my third cycle and I haven’t got one, yet I’ve seen people on here have multiple, then get an AC invite. I’ve seen someone on here with about 8 ACs this cycle alone.

I really don’t want to sound bitter or jealous but knowing people can seem to get a VS easily and are in the position to choose between offers while I can’t even get one after years just sucks.

hey! did you apply for their vac scheme? i applied at the start of the month but have not received anything since
I applied 21 Feb and received the test an hour ago - maybe check your spam?
Same as this commentator - I only received the test recently. If you guys have any tips we could have a chat? I dunno what to expect. I've done SJTs for Pinsent, Mills and Reeve, Womble Bond, Linklaters and Irwin Mitchell so far with varying results.
