Yeah. I saw someone had heard back on here but I think it’s not very many so far?
Just wondering if I was wrong about that.
Last email I got from Mishchon was few days ago saying they'll let us know by the end of the week.
Also has anyone heard from Bird and Bird after video interview?

HSF PFO after passing the test - I tried my best in the application questions so be it - considering last year I didn't even pass the test that was already an improvement LOL

will freshfields have a summer TC application window this year. I don’t want to apply to the winter one as I have deadlines
Do McDermott take non law graduates? I’m slightly frustrated by the process. I’ve already done three Vacation Schemes. Direct TCs do feel quite rare. Few hiring a majority through those. Might multiple VSs hurt VS applications? It’s just frustrating in some ways. I don’t think being 27 hurts. So that’s something positive, I guess.
Then there is obviously another question. How do you get direct TCs? What do you have to prove? Especially for the US law firms.
It’s been a rough week, tbh. Struggling to get out of bed. Writing 30 applications was certainly energising. This current stage not so much. I got Milbank VS in 2019. It clashed with another firm’s VS. So I regret not doing it. I also regret not converting Ropes. These two things greatly depress me.

For DWF application it has a question about one of their values and the question is as follows. The DWF value 'Be Better Together' is key to our business. Please identify when you have demonstrated this value and how you would apply this to the role of a Trainee Solicitor.
My question is would it be OK to talk about one example or should I mention two examples of demonstrating this value.
