Simmons PFO after waiting 2.5months post SJT+VI

Sorry to hear this, which office was this?

Hi @Abbie Whitlock, hope you are well!

Just wanted to ask how long my answer to why this firm should be in an interview. I timed myself and it's 5 mins, which is quite long. But I used the same lengthy answer in the initial interview (with grad recruitment) and they invited me back to the AC. Not sure whether this long answer would go down well with partners.

Thank you so much!

Yeah I didn’t know we had a choice

Ah! Maybe not! I know I can’t do the summer dates so I noted it down as Easter but can’t remember if I had to make a choice on the application - probably not if you can both remember not choosing. That’s sad as I was hoping that was the reason I hadn’t heard!

Ahhh okay!! I applied to Bristol so hoping they'll get back to me soon too (((

So true, I did my SJT and VI at the end of October
