[QUOTE="Myparentsdream, post: 243960, member: 44128"] On the topic of freshfields and reasonable adjustments. Would it be bad to request a SAR against Cleary? I applied and to my surprise I was invited to the WG having not met the A level requirements nor the 'leading university' one (Non RG applicant here). I requested additional adjustments and an extra few days as I was on a trip. I did the WG and I was confident I had passed as it was probably one of the easiest WG I have ever taken. I then followed up with an email maybe a week later asking for timelines as people were invited to he AC being held on the 28th Jan (they did the WG around the same day as me) and I had mandatory work training in another office (not in London). I was rejected swiftly after. I asked what my WG score was as I was quite surprised and they said no. I can take rejection but I think either a junior progressed my application then once it came to reviewing for AC they rejected me or they invited me to [B]look [/B]inclusive to non AAA achieving and [B]non RG students [/B]but they just target your standard Oxbridge, top london or Durham uni's.. Why get my hopes up and invite me to WG? I want to know the actual reason for the rejection as it seems shifty. I wouldn't be applying again for a TC but i assume it could affect future hiring?
