I knooow right! I honestly ignored the length prompt for questions like “Why Mishcon” and gave a properly detailed answer. Then I check the interview notes on the side, and it had condensed two whole paragraphs I wrote to 1 sentence.WAIT COS THE CHEEK!!
On the “Why Mishcon” question I went to start a new paragraph by pressing enter, but then it submitted my answer…but because it didn’t question me I thought must be okay as it is!
I just hope they give more guidance next cycle on how much they’re expecting. When it gave me the word length prompt, I clicked backspace assuming that’s the length they wanted
OMG, that is literally the smile I had at the end of the Mishcon VIOh, how I love a VI ‘pose and smile’ when it hits 5 seconds because I don’t want to accidentally yap
. It will haunt me for years to come.
How on earth am I Strikingly Real...

Love how most people go their latham PFOs today and I got mine during Christmas, guess my VI and app were that horrible. In other news, I'm officially done with all my written apps for firms I wanted to apply to. Now I can focus on my degree which I've neglected this entire holiday

Well, I hated the Bright Apply. No follow up questions. Lmao
The RPC's Strikingly real question is the goofiest question I've encountered in the application cycle and I'm crying buckets after coming up with a half-baked answer for it because that's such a great firm by culture, my fav area of expertise and most importantly, truly diverse!

Funny enough their Hong Kong application is completely opposite.RPCs grad rec team after they came up with their #strikinglyreal branding and decided to use it as an app question to be #uniqueanddifferent:
6 questions, each deep ones, and 250 words...
And then there's the London one. Just one Goofy
question for 300 words.I mean, there should be a balance, fr. This can't be a thing.
I just did the RPC "keep it real innit" app. Not sure where the balance was, but I had 219 words on "why law" and then 81 words on "why RPC".
It’s almost midnight lads I think we ought to get some sleep
