[QUOTE="l789, post: 185583, member: 7258"] You’re so kind! Thank you so much for a detailed response :) and for sharing all of the information you have. I don’t know how to feel about aspiring solicitors anymore. Especially now after Akingate. I’ve noticed some disparities with the applicants who have been offered their formula 1 vacation schemes and Akins work experience scheme which took place in the summer. They’re not an organisation I can rely on for help even though I fit their “diversity” criteria. Skadden for me is a high priority firm, their reputation in contentious and non contentious sticks out like a sore thumb ( in a good way) I saw a post on linkedin by the firms counsel that they’ve been ranked tier 1 in lit/ int arbitration for 15 years now. Really incredible! I haven’t visited the firm yet, but through previous virtual events the firm hosted I got really good vibes and these days I lead with my intuition as it’s never failed me- so skadden is an application I will be heavily investing in. Thanks for all the advice though, I took a screenshot so will refer back when I’m writing my application :) [/QUOTE]
