Travers Smith Interview

[Naomi]

How long have you guys been waiting for now?

Since 26th December... just seems so weird that so many of us haven't heard.

 

[Sheda Qadery]

Hi guys, has anyone heard back from Travers Smith for the summer vacation scheme? I applied in January and I still haven't heard back yet.

 

[Jaysen]

Wow, that's almost four months now. Not great practice.

Have they been keeping you guys up to date on when you can expect to hear back?

 

[Daniel Boden]

Wow, that's almost four months now. Not great practice.

I have genuinely not heard a thing from TS since my application in December

 

[S30]

Wow, that's almost four months now. Not great practice.

Have they been keeping you guys up to date on when you can expect to hear back?

I received an email from Grad Recruitment in the beginning of February stating they will let everyone know of an outcome by the end of February...

But I am aware they are still a bit behind on reading all applications and have not read all applications yet for their summer vacation scheme, so it’s an odd one!

 

[Sheda Qadery]

Wow, that's almost four months now. Not great practice.

Have they been keeping you guys up to date on when you can expect to hear back?

No, I emailed them about two weeks and they haven't responded to that... its awkward.

 

[ELA]

I hadn't heard anything before I emailed to ask.

 

[Jaysen]

Hmm that’s strange. Fair enough if they’re very busy but it’s good practice to keep candidates in the loop. I wonder if they’re having some kind of internal issue.

 

[Helena]

It's very odd that no one here has heard from them other than I believe @TheCustardPants who had an interview (I believe) ages ago. But not one of us!

 

[S30]

Indeed, very odd!

 

[TheCustardPants]

Hey guys, I had an interview back in Feb and they got back to me in a week. It's a bit odd you guys haven't heard back?

 

[Helena]

It really is - not one of us.

 

[ELA]

Finally got email rejection from Travers Smith. The way it's phrased, I'm not sure the application was read. I guess it doesn't matter.

 

[Helena]

Oh really! I expect mine is on the way

 

[anf1811]

Yes I've just received the same email and get a similar feeling, most firms normally include something along the lines of "we review each application carefully" but nothing like that in their email, just sounds like they filled up without needing to read them all.

 

[Daniel Boden]

Also just received the same email. That's pretty poor from them if you ask me. Surely they would lose out on some good candidates if they don't even read all applications?

 

[Hamilton]

Same email here. Very odd wording.

 

[Helena]

Yes mine has arrived. So disappointed with the firm's approach.

 

[Naomi]

Received the same email. Honestly not very impressed with the way they’ve handled this application cycle? Doesn’t sound like they actually read these applications...

 

[Jaysen]

Out of interest - what does the email roughly say?
