Done NRF VI not long ago. Quite the nightmare that they bundle "why law - why commercial law - why NRF" all into the same question. You have to apportion your time in this question and it might feel you are taking too long to answer it, but DO NOT stop because of time just keep banging the answer out. They do not ask follow up questions.
Have they sent out all first-stage interview invites?Anyone heard from Travers recently?
No idea, hoping notHave they sent out all first-stage interview invites?
Some people started getting interview invites 2 weeks ago.Have they sent out all first-stage interview invites?
I haven't heard of this before but I would say that this might not be too bad;OMG really annoying that a law firm will only offer feedback post AC by written form and not a call. Do a few firms do this or is it only the firm I had an interview with. I thought they do a feedback call post AC rejections.
It is very firm specific unfortunately. I heard that some firms send emails whilst others call. I think it really depends but I did hear that the feedbacks are not as exhaustive.OMG really annoying that a law firm will only offer feedback post AC by written form and not a call.

I totally agree with this, thank you @trainee2025 for sharing!I haven't heard of this before but I would say that this might not be too bad;
- you have the feedback to hand to refer back to instead of being reliant on scribbling things down during the call
- you can (hopefully) get a pretty clear idea of what they are looking for in the AC/how it is scored. This is likely to be similar for many firms so you should be able to see where you can improve in the future.
I think if the written feedback raises any questions, they might be willing to clarify in a follow-up email as well if you felt comfortable asking. At least you're hopefully getting some useful written points even if not a full feedback call (which isn't always even that helpful depending on the firm).

No it is not a bad sign - it is still "early this week". If you haven't heard anything by late Friday or early Monday, then maybe check in with them.@axelbeugre @Jessica Booker a couple of us on the forum did an AC with W&C last week and they said they would be in touch by the end of last week or early this week and so far only one person has heard back with an offer and no one else has heard either with an offer or rejection. Is this a bad sign that their response is now out of their quoted period? Some insight on this would be appreciated.
