They tend to have higher, usually 35-45%

Totally bombed Mayer brown VI. I find VIs so hard I am a lost cause

This makes sense as they tend to offer more training contracts.

Are receiving video interviews selective at firms like FF and CC?

 

[tldrba]

VI at FF is part of the Stage 2 Online Assessment, which is received after meeting the benchmark of Stage 1.

VI at CC is more selective in that you need to pass (the newly introduced) immersive online assessment, the WGT and then application review.
