Me seeing all of these posts about Mishcon as an outsider who didn’t apply so has no idea what yous are talking about re the AI chat and SJT:

I applied to it on a whim low key, I did not realise what I'd be signing up to

I have bad FOMO now from not applying, I wanna make friends with the chatbot

They’ve made a lot of Spring and Summer offers (not all) since Nov and sent out PFOs, so I would email them to see where your app is.

They’re still conducting first stage interviews and ACs. I’ve got the AC towards the end of Feb so they’re at least doing them until then. ​

I feel like the SJT was not at all selective.
I mean think about it - this is the first time they used the chatbot stage, so you can't expect they'll judge their entire selection process based off of something experimental like this.

My lack of SJT invite suggests otherwise

Aren't these kinds of messages generally (or possibly) frowned upon?
