I emailed about this, I applied to the Manchester office for context, and they said it will be sent out in batches over the next 10 days
Echoing this, I need to do it, but I cannot find the energy
I think they review all applications after the deadline
As part of a written question, a firm is asking how would you approach working with people of different ages in the firm, does anyone have any tips on how to answer this?
In previous jobs (non-law) I've worked with people of all age groups, is it worth mentioning that here?

Hey Abbie, hope you’re well!
I’ve got an interview coming up with Winston & Strawn and was hoping to get your view on how best to approach it given the merger with Taylor Wessing.
For my “why this firm” answer, I was planning to talk about Winston’s smaller, specialised London team and the exposure and responsibility that comes with that. With the merger though, I’m conscious that the firm’s structure and positioning are likely to change.
Do you think it’s still appropriate to reference the benefits of the smaller team environment, or would it be better to focus more on the opportunities created by being part of a larger, integrated platform? Do you have any other ideas for how to approach the merger in other aspects of the interview as well?
Thank you!

I got mine on 17 Feb for the London office- there's quite a long deadline (but mine is fast approaching)
I'd say its definitely worth mentioning, I think typically I would speak about the benefits of working with people who have more experience and how collaboration is vital etc.
