Anybody still waiting on Freshfields after being waitlisted?

Feels like waiting for a response from a risky text (probably)

Has anyone heard back from DWF post-app? Applied in December...

 

[LauraPM]

Can I ask if this was for DTC or vac scheme and for what office?

Vac scheme for the London office

Has anyone been PFOd by Forsters? Trying to figure out whether no news is bad or good news

I’ve also heard nothing but others have received ACs after being put on the FF waitlist lmao.

Idk what’s worse, Sidley being on day 63 and still nothing post app or FF being on day 64 post VI…

No but I’m 100% certain they’ll do that by email tomorrow. They made VS offers covering all their three schemes by phone this morning and I’m certain that will have been it. But - hope for both our sakes I’m wrong.

had interview today.

IDK why but I wasn't very happy with it, but normally am more so and then get PFOed.

Hope this is a good sign, but probably isn't
