Hi Guys!! I have a Gibson Dunn first stage interview early next week, any insights are highly appreciated!! Can share insights about NRF VI, BAKERS VI, Hogan Lovells Job sim, Freshfields Job Sim, Akin TI, PwC VI, Pinsent Masons VI
Cleary PFO post WG
Did my Akin TI today and walked away feeling like it was a box ticking exercise and disappointed I didn't get a chance to have a conversation as such.
Double whammy feeling uneasy rn. Might fuel this into more applications even though I'm meant to be on a family holiday

Those who recently got first stage GD, when did you apply? I applied 2nd Jan and nothing so far!
12 November, received the invite yesterday
I'm so sorry this happened to you with Akin, I did the TI and the questions were very basic so maybe they changed the questions I guess
How have people tackled the Ropes and Gray VS question -
Describe three characteristics that you believe make an outstanding Ropes & Gray lawyer and how that lawyer would drive our business.
Max 500 words
Have you tied in your own personal characterisitics to sell yourself? Have you tied in any personal experiences? The way im currently thinking about approaching this is defining why and how the three characterisitcs i am chosing are great for RG and then relating them to myself, including a breif example of how i have shown or learnt this characterisitics through my current role at a law firm. Obviously this is an oversimplified layout of my plan, i was just curious if you guys had vastly different ideas?

This was actually my problem with the questions- I feel like I overprepared for pushback/ a conversation around my answers but the questions were very basic so idk if I under or over elaborated. Must have just been a standard list for tickboxing.
Do you have your Akin outcome yet?
No they did not get back to me yet, I did my TI 30th of December and they said that I will hear back in two weeks it has been 3 now so idk
finally a milbank PFO post stage 1. no idea how i managed to fail that
