This decision was the most difficult one I have had to make in my life so far, but I am excited for what’s ahead in this TC and commercial law journey. 😅 Over the past 6-7 months, a lot of people have asked me about my experience going through this application cycle. I figured I would make a few posts addressing this, with the first being a breakdown of my entire cycle (see below): [U][B]Vacation Scheme (‘VS’) offers:[/B][/U] Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld Covington & Burling Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison Stephenson Harwood Willkie Farr & Gallagher [B][U]Direct Training Contract (‘DTC’) AC offers:[/U][/B] Baker McKenzie Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe [B][U]Winter VS PFOs:[/U][/B] A&O Shearman: PFO post SJT/VI Ashurst: PFO post OT Dechert: PFO post app Jones Day: PFO post app Linklaters: PFO post WG Norton Rose Fulbright: PFO post OT Simmons & Simmons: PFO post SJT/VI [B][U]Spring & Summer VS PFOs:[/U][/B] Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner: PFO post VI Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer: PFO post OT Hogan Lovells: PFO post WG Macfarlanes: PFO post OT Paul Hastings: PFO post VI Ropes & Gray: PFO post app Travers Smith: PFO post app White & Case: PFO post VI [B][U]Direct TC PFOs:[/U][/B] Slaughter and May: PFO post app Sullivan & Cromwell: PFO post app To anybody who will be applying for VS or DTC in the upcoming cycle, I hope this offers some reassurance that rejection is 100% redirection.
