I’m calling it, PW is not going to send any more invites, only pfos

Don’t say that

Has anyone heard back from Simmons & Simmons LLP post-AC?

is that AC for the summer or spring? If summer, when did you do your VI

i've been sent the WBD tests and I've done similar tests for Reed Smith before which didnt go that well - on the email it says there is a practice test which i cant see as a link and also i was wondering if anyone had any practice tests for this kind of " Blended High Potential Assessment" or any test websites for it, i know its an amberjack test but i dont know how to improve on these tests in particular?

hi,
there is a thread here: https://www.thecorporatelawacademy....est-sjt-advice-on-the-forum.4350/#post-202350

@Chris Brown can't find your post, but huge huge huge congrats on your AC!! Very well deserved! No joke, you're literally among the few few people that I truly focus on in terms of VS/TC journey!! Good luck, you'll smash it!!

also i havent heard anything from mishcon since i applied in mid-november should i assume its a PFO? i get their emails updating us on when we might expect to hear back but given that others have been sent VIs etc...

I would assume so! I got VI in December, PFO on 4 February, so if you never got the VI I don't see how you could be in the running now.

How is PW is affording all those high salaries exactly? I wonder just how leveraged the firm is.

at their spring AC they said they hadn’t even finished screening apps yet for summer so definitely more to play for still with mishcon!

Is this for summer? I applied back in October and haven’t heard anything not even a VI

Probably a PFO then they are doing ACs this month and I did a VI in December for summer
