[QUOTE="ADKM, post: 173399, member: 25667"] Inspired by [USER=31343]@Legalstalker[/USER] and [USER=31663]@Sharon Wu[/USER], I also want to share my application journey so far. To anyone reading this, if u feel ur behind the 8 ball, I hope this post comforts u. I’m a graduate, having worked in hospitality, sales (covering groceries, footwear & apparel, home furnishings), legal, and volunteering, I still haven’t gotten a tc and will never lose optimism of getting one until I get one. Total apps submitted (across 2 cycles)- 26 PFO post apps- 20 PFO post 2nd stage- 3 Firms waiting on- 3 AC reached- 0 Hardest rejection- W&C as I gave a lot of thought on drafting a concise, bespoke cover letter so this one particularly hurt 😭 Easiest rejection- shearman & sterling as I heard some not-so-great stories about them Plan going forward- currently working as a sales assistant but have a new offer lined up with a global AI training and collection company in London (will start from 19 march). Given all the hype surrounding AI, hopefully this role gives me some good experience ahead of the new season. As I have some legal experience under my belt, I’m planning on submitting few direct apps in the summer. Congratulations on ur VS offers [USER=31343]@Legalstalker[/USER] and [USER=31663]@Sharon Wu[/USER], very well deserved 🥳🥳 hope u both convert it [/QUOTE]
