Did you get an email about reaching the benchmark post VI.Has anyone got an AC for DLA pipers Manchester office?
Yes I received this a few weeks agoDid you get an email about reaching the benchmark post VI.
Not only do I not think it is not a bad thing, but I think your approach is in fact desirable. You can do lots of open days and still not get any closer to an AC. In fact, I was rejected at application stage at some firms I had attended both a competitive open day and a number of other insight events. My view is that while it is good to attend as many as possible general-access or sign up-based careers events, there is a limited number of firms for which you should invest time in applications for competitive open days.is it a bad thing to prioritise vs/tc apps over open days rn? my time off from work is finite and i’d rather prioritise vac schemes/interviews over open days? i’ve done some online events and met a lot of firms during uni last year, but i’m worried im putting myself at a disadvantage by not doing lots this year?!
