Some spots are for Bristol!

Online assessment before the invite expires

15 in London and 5 in Bristol, I believe

It’s just that I thought they said 20 trainees in London and 6 in Bristol 😕 thank you though : )!!

I passed the DLA wg on the 30th oct... haven't heard back from them since. Not sure how to feel about this

I’m sorry you haven’t heard back. Can i ask how you knew you passed?

when you receive the Willkie Vi how long do you get to do it?

Hi @Bbhu19

You get 1 week to complete it.

Thanks,

Kirsty

I’m sorry you haven’t heard back. Can i ask how you knew you passed?

They email you to let you know you have passed the benchmark — often the day after you take the WG!

Hi, does the HSF Kramer online assessment need to be completed before the deadline today?

I don't think so. It is 7 days from when you receive the email

I have received an email from DLA Piper saying they are ‘writing to confirm that your application is now under consideration for the next stage of our recruitment process, the first stage interview’. Does this mean I have met their benchmark for the WG? Or do they send an email that specifically states you’ve passed the WG? My feedback report wasn’t the best so I’m quite worried and don’t know what to make of this email. Any help appreciated!
