2025 Vac Scheme Cycle -
Got my first rejection by Bird & Bird around 2 pm whilst I was doing my Osborne Clarke assessment for the Vacation scheme
Speaking of which, I flopped it because I didn't get to finish the second part of the test (2 questions away), but I think the answers that I submitted were more correct than not, so maybe that's not too bad.

My favourite part of researching is when I research on firm A and come across an important deal it has worked on, and the firm in the opposite side the firm that my next application's gonna be about. It has happened 4 times, and it makes me feel so happy and excited that I don't have to do two different research to highlight a case, phew!

Hi Abbie, I had a quick question about an application prompt: The world is changing in the legal sector - how do you think the profession is changing? Do you think it’s too niche to focus on the rise of blockchain in IP, even though the firm has a strong IP practice? I’m wondering whether it’s safer to take a broader approach instead.
I love attending conferences more than Open Days, coz here I'm one of the very few students and I can get to talk in depth with top 25 law firm representatives that work in the practice areas I'm interested in knowing more about.

I think I did terrible with my WGT. FML.
It could have been much better man, FFS😭😭😭😭

I'm so stressed and worried about this WGT.
I can't even enjoy the joy of getting past the first round of screening for the first time, as I barely have 2 days to complete the test. And all of th efforts for a successful application means nothing if I can't get past this test.
I hope I can make it out of the woods!

Not something related to VS/TC, but the consulting firms tests are scarier than the law firms tests...
After having an exposure to that, I'm kinda accepting that law firm tests are more inclusive and adaptive. Consulting firms offer unreasonable timings for longer questions!
And it's welcoming to see firms adapting bespoke tests

Heya! I was just wondering if you had heard anything from Bird & Bird? I think we did our VIs around the same time

Hi! I hope you are doing well?
Would you be able to please provide insights to how many questions are asked.
Additionally, whether the questions revolve about the motivations for a career at the firm and questions where I can showcase my strengths?
Thank you so much - I really appreciate it!
