[QUOTE="Amgrad, post: 218406, member: 42426"] I think someone highlight the reason why most firms right now focus on grades and require additional tests as a result of the low passing rate of SQEs are obvious Also, what I've seen some firms have shifted the recruitment openings due to market changes as well, for example Getting stronger in APAC (highest/higher revenue or deals): • Freshfields, massive expansion in Asia, probably remove the London WVS because wanted to hire more asians in their TC or VS program • Bird & Bird, new office in China • Goodwin, new office in Japan • DAC Beachcroft, new office in China Getting weaker in APAC (shut down their office/stopped partnership), but stronger in EMEA (particularly GCC): • BCLP, closed office in China & Singapore, shows real estate growth in UAE • McDermott, closed office in Singapore & China, shifted business focus in Europe • White & Case, ended partnership in Indonesia, open plenty of VS & TC in Saudi Arabia [/QUOTE]
