Seems the higher scores havenāt heard back so maybe their replying by benchmark and going up ( this is purely a theory so I can cling for some hope)Samee
And it was one of my better VI's and got a 27 on that test

Congrats!! What date is the AC?Omg just as Iāve sent that, Weil AC. Did the test 21st december scored 6776.
Hey @M_m where you are being asked to explain "why you" as a separate question all together, I don't think you need to make your answer specific to the firm but rather the career. So, if you talk about your insane communication skills (and an experience that has qualified that skill) then try to end the point off with a link to how this will make you stronger as a commercial solicitor. The point here is to show the firm that you understand what it takes to be a solicitor today.
Where you can make this specific to the firm, is typically when your interest in the firm is a particular capability, that you've discussed in your motivational question. Then, I imagine you could talk about your skills/experiences and how this would fit well with that particular offering. For example, if you've spoken about how the firm's operational risk department interests you, when it comes to "why you" you could go into detail about your ethical integrity, knowledge of the regulatory landscape, or ability to build strong stakeholder relationships - and highlight why this would be useful for that particular practice area.
I feel like they should have PFOād us with the other batch in December if they didnāt consider us at all..who knows
Factssss, feel like I gave a VI of a lifetime sighI feel like they should have PFOād us with the other batch in December if they didnāt consider us at all..who knows
Dang Weil ACs are coming out already, congratulations to all those that heard back!
I even went to their networking dinner through my uni so veeery upsetting indeed
I gave up , won't ask about Bakers anymore
Building on this, does baker mckenzie actually send out rejections? haven't seen any pfos for any stage on here
Travers says candidates with a disability who 'meet the minimum criteria for the role' will be invited to interview. Do they mean grade requirements? Or are there other minimum requirements they may be referring to, e.g. work experience etc?
Oh right, that makes sense, it did feel a bit too good to be true :') thanks!
Anyone heard from DLA Piper Manchester for an AC?
I would be wary of this. IME it doesn't mean anything. Unless you need particular special arrangements I would be careful about disclosing.
It tends to translate into "if you meet the score you are guaranteed an interview". However, it's not clear how that is different from any other candidate. It's not a "we will interview all candidates who declare a disability".
Hi guys, do you know how long after test does White & Case send you the VI? It's for summer.
I applied on 25th Dec and haven't heard anything since. I know @elle woods got it in a few days but I've never reached VI with them so I don't know what to expect.
