[Lizzy]

Congratulations! 🥳🥳 Could I also ask if you noticed the progress percentage (66%/77%) before your invite? Also, did you notice if there was a tick by application review?

Thank you! Yes it was at 77% and there was a tick by application review.

 

[Rus]

Anyone know if Latham have handed out any summer ACs yet?

Yeah they have

 

[Defnefresko]

does anyone know how long we have to prep/answer the CRS VI questions??

30 sec. prep, 90 sec. answer

Hey can I ask if you received the feedback report since I have not

 

[mg42guy32]

Trowers London AC!!

Did you receive a feedback report for the online assessment?

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it 😊 all the best, you’ll absolutely smash it 😎🍀

 

[g.cl.2020344]

Yeah they have

Last I heard from them was an email at the end of Jan saying they hope to get back to everyone by the end of Feb latest!

 

[mg42guy32]

Same here. I was allocated Trowers as part of 10K Black Interns

Have you heard back?

If a law firm was conducting interviews until Friday and said they’ll get back to us this week, which day should I reasonably expect to hear back?

 

[LegallyStressedOut]

Do you think if I haven’t heard from cleary post app it’s a pfo? I saw some people getting the WG invite last week. Also has anyone heard from greenberg?

600 words each for three questions is so tricky - how does one effectively ramble on for so long :/

Jeez, who's that for? If you wanted to hit the limit on each question, you could be liberal with examples of motivations and competencies to further reinforce what you would've said in 300 words

It could be any time this week.

And thank you for that! Will definitely do that. It's just funny trying to be liberal with responses after doing the exact opposite of that for a 250 wordcount 😭

 

[far]

did anyone completing the Dechert WE receive a confirmation email when they submitted the task?

 

[laurenn42]

If I am required to do a 10 minute presentation in an AC, how vital is it that I make up the full 10 minutes? e.g. if the presentation was 8 minutes upon delivery is this really bad?

 

[cjwx]

After completing the Withers test did anyone get a confirmation email? I have not got one.

 

[TC129129]

Anyone done the Squires/Fladgate VI and has any advice?

 

[Laylaaa]

Is anyone yet to hear back from Hogan Lovells SVS post WG? Just wondering if it’s time to assume PFO as people are starting to receive offers?

I haven’t heard anything yet but also haven’t seen or heard of anyone getting ACs. Good luck!
