Hi! Does anyone know (maybe from last year or from experience) which law firms only require a covering letter (instead of application questions) to apply for a vacation scheme? E.g. White & Case

Thanks so much and good luck everyone!

Slaughter and May
Gibson Dunn
Skadden (although you also have to provide your extracurriculars and positions of responsibility as separate questions - but effectively a longer cover letter format)
Norton Rose Fulbright
Freshfields (personal statement, but effectively like a cover letter)
Travers Smith (although you also have to provide your extracurriculars and positions of responsibility as separate questions - but effectively a longer cover letter format)
White & Case (although you also have to provide your extracurriculars and positions of responsibility as separate questions, as well as details of events you have attended - but effectively a longer cover letter format)
