What was the Paul, Weiss email about? I plan on applying and I thought the deadline was non-rolling? Thank you.
It was just a reminder about the application deadline which is the 19th January.

Paul, Weiss is non-rolling so you can still apply but just try to get your application in at least a few hours in advance of the deadline to avoid technical difficulties.​

Does anyone have subscribed access to Bloomberg? I am unable to access the link "https://news.bloomberglaw.com/busin...gthens-grip-on-shifting-m-a-deals-leaderboard" because I don't have a subscription. Could @Andrei Radu or @Amma Usman please confirm if they can access the information about Kirkland and Ellis maintaining its position as one of the top 10 Global Legal Advisors for M&A in 2024, based on deal value and deal count?
I think others would cover this. Happens with The Lawyer articles too. If you Google the headline maybe. That usually works well for me. Thomson Reuters might have covered it.

Hi Everyone,

I’m a non-law student and this is my first application cycle. I am applying to - Baker McKenzie (submitted on the morning of the deadline day), NRF (submitted also on the Day of the deadline), Freshfields, white&case and lastly Osborne Clarke. I didn’t realise that Bakers, white&case and Osborne have rolling deadline. (Osborne review applications as they come but do not fill up interview or AC places until after the deadline). White&Case and Osborne Clarke have deadline on the 12/01 and 15/01 respectively.

Have I messed up here and do I have any chance at all of progressing to the next stages?
I heard from OC's grad rec that their deadline is non-rolling. She said that yeah, they review applications as they come in and put them in piles. Then after the deadline, they review their yes and maybes and give AC then. So you still have a chance if you submit on the deadline.
