Has anyone applied to the Kingsley Napley in person open day and heard back? The one in March

For Debevoise, do people know whether they read your application form and ask you questions based on it? Is the interview largely commercial based on an article? Or do they ask you competency Qs too

I did it in a previous cycle, it was entirely article based for me

I think mishcon are doing ac's until start of march. so wouldn't worry yet. also they give you about a week from the invite to do the ac

 

[lucyindia]

A bit unrelated but my dream firm posted a vacancy (4PQE) for my dream department, literally all I ever want to do and it's just so inspiring to be reassured that this exists and that perhaps one day I can have that role!!!

 

[kuuks_]

anyone heard from Travers Smith or Stephenson Harwood yet? Or have an idea when they will be getting back?

 

[tc_cc]

paul, weiss summer pfo

Same here

Do you know if they’ve already started acs for summer?

Paul, Weiss PFO. That leaves only 7 firms I still have "live" applications for.

I simply don't know what's going wrong, only 2 people in my university got a higher score than me in my degree, and I have all distinctions in my law conversion as well. I put a lot of effort into these apps as well. I just don't know what more I could really be doing at this point, just how much luck do you need??
