Willkie WE also! So so happy as I was rejected after VI last year.

Also is the cleary WG automatic? I literally got an 'we were impressed with your application ...' invite 2 mins after I sent my cover letter off which makes me feel like they did not read it 😭 😭

If I get rejected after VI, I think I'll ask them if they have any roles available on the graduate recruiter team 🤣
