Passed HSF benchmark in December for the summer vac. Should I assume PFO at this stage? ( I've seen a few invites for summer on here already)

I think Paul mentioned they would review applications again alongside test scores and successful applicants would be invited to interviews. ​

Has anyone heard from Ashurst for summer vs? Either PFOs or next stage progressions

Haven’t heard anything myself but I’ve seen people be invited to written exercise. I also received an email saying to expect to hear back by feb

Does anyone know if the Paul, Weiss test has a recorded interview component?

 

[KBanana]

Do you guys think Paul, Weiss will be sending out anymore tests or is this it for the rest of us?

The Womble Bond Dickinson app form does not seem to have any space to input university grades (module breakdown) – do you have the same issue?

Just received Paul Weiss WG invite - surprised since I put in less work versus my Cooley App but they didn't give me the WG. I applied to Paul Weiss the day before the deadline

I think it’s just SJT, numerical and verbal reasoning style questions. I don’t think there is a prerecorded interview component.

On their website it says "Shortlisted candidates will be invited to participate in interviews and assessments" - there must either be an interview component, or an interview following the online assessment if you do well
