Tbh these are for direct TC’s, and so I would imagine they would want give out AC’s around April/ May and give decisions by June etc, i.e., closer to when the law school year begins ( I think would be September/ October).

Btw I’m probably wrong with this line of thinking, but this does make sense to me, seeing as we will not be doing a VS.
Yeah I don't think this is right, I've seen direct TC offers from Freshfields by March

Has anyone who has applied to Brown Rudnick not gotten a confirmation email?

I also did not get a confirmation email from Winston & Strawn, not sure what's going on with these american firms. A little automatic email receipt would've been appreciated for peace of mind.
Did not receive a confirmation for Brown Rudnick, I presume its the ViDesktop platform that they use. Perhaps Winston uses the same?

I have seen a few people who have had first and second round interviews and some have been given VS offers on this forum. 🙂

I didn’t apply but I think they are rolling basis? 🙂
They did have a direct TC route from memory

I didn’t apply but I think they recruit on a rolling basis so might still have slots left? 🙂
Hey, I just double checked my app and I think like me the person on this thread applied for their direct TC not SVS as this is a different thread. Maybe they’re prioritising filling up SVS slots before looking at the direct TC apps
