[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 219153, member: 42112"] Hey! I'm unsure of how strict their 'rolling' stance is, but if you feel that your application is strong and would have a good chance of being progressed, I don't think it's impossible to be progressed this late in the application window. Whilst not at Dechert, I applied on the deadline for a firm with a rolling deadline, and I still ended up with a VS offer - it's definitely not impossible. However, if you feel you could use some time to build some more experiences and refine your application, it might be worth applying for their spring / summer scheme - especially if you can only apply to one per cycle. It also depends on whether you are able to complete the spring / summer scheme. If you can, there is no harm in waiting until that window opens up, as you will have a strong and tailored application ready to go at the start of the window! I hope that helps :) [/QUOTE]
