Anyone applied to the Leeds office? Received an email saying the position isn’t available anymore due to a ‘change of business needs’

Omg…that is horrible. Was this after you had done an AC or interview?

No way! I applied for the Leeds office as well and was anxious it was taking so long

After the AC/Senior Associate interview

They’ve said they can move my application to Manchester in fairness. But location was a big deal to me

Has anyone heard back for the Direct TC from the Manchester office yet? They said early March, but it is the 14th now...

They sent me an email that they’re currently collating the interview feedback… honestly no clue 😩

Just received an email about going in person into the office post-final interview. Does anyone know anything about this?

Congrats, which office is it?

They said the same thing to me too! But, it is still positive news right...It means we are being considered for final interview. If they wanted to reject us, they would have done it already, no?

 

[LawO]

Yeah. Although they did say they couldn’t confirm whether I’d passed the AC due to the ‘reshuffle of vacancies’.

Hi, just wondering—did you receive this email as a reply, or did Kennedys send it on their own?

When did they say that? Because to me they said by the end of this week

Oh okay, I emailed grad rec yesterday to ask for an update. They said aiming by end of next week. I guess outcomes might get delivered across the two weeks?

 

[abm531]

Omg, I'm so nervous. Kennedys is my dream firm! I really hope I get it XD

 

[abm531]

I asked and they won't even tell me when will I hear back. All I know is I applied for Leeds' 2025 TC, and now, I'm being moved to Manchester's 2026 TC T.T
