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:

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.

also, how long should a cover letter be for Proskauer Rose (with no other instructions given as to how many pages/word limit)?

I haven’t heard back from Gowling post VI for their TC. Their second AC is on the 27th should I assume PFO or email them😭
I checked the portal and haven’t been rejected either…

So they have been dropping 👀Have W&C VIs just dropped?
Friday 16th Jan & Friday 23rd Jan. Oh I’ll be tuning in patiently for the Fridays ahead.

Hello!
I would say that the general rule of thumb is around one page - as there is no guidance, Proskauer are likely expecting a concise cover letter that is roughly a page. This should be enough space to cover why Proskauer, why law, and why you without feeling padded.
