Hey I did my assessment centre last week for a direct TCdo we think CMS give out all ACs, didn’t get one and thought my VI went well
have they even released any? i’ve not seen anyone talking about themReally hoping that Freshfields release more ACs for DTC
Hi Abbie! Thank you so much! Sorry to ask too many questions but I was wondering if a client email would also require a executive summary at the top? or is that too awkward?
Did you hear back today? Why do they keep doing these things on a Friday? 😅🫠
Hi! Thank you! I applied around early December. If it helps, from my understanding they are halfway through their HFW ACs so there should be around 4 ACs to go - by my calculations. Good luck!!
I did my bird and bird AC with top score and they didn’t record the WE, we all had it at different times I think so we weren’t like all on a call, but with another firm it might be different
Hey!
No worries at all - no need to apologise!
If the email is quite lengthy, I'd usually include a short opening paragraph that summarises the key points and the main recommendations - just to give the client a quick sense of the key elements of the email. However, for a shorter email (or if time is particularly tight), I wouldn't say it is necessary - especially if you have a clear conclusion at the end.

HSF Kramer Summer AC invite, would appreciate any insights!
Is this for a pre-recorded VI, a live VI like GDC with grad rec, or a partner VI like Skadden?
It varies depending on this but tbf they could ask you anything to test your knowledge in a VI.
It’s a good idea to create a bank of VI questions and answers so you’re prepared for anything.
I’ve been referring to this list of questions and it has helped me to feel a bit more confident:

Training Contract Interview Questions | 175 Practice Questions (2018)
We've produced these training contract interview questions to help you practice for interviews and assessment centres at law firms. Why? Well, we've arranged many mock interviews over the years and we see a substantial difference in performance after students have practiced real interview questions.

Yeah I saw some people post about Dechert ACs on the forum under a week ago. Some of us have WEs to do in the next week or so too though so it might not be all ACs were sent out yet.
