Why doesn't it make sense?
You can email them or do a Subject Access Request, but the latter can be a bit OTT perhaps?

Thank you so much! That thread is exactly what I needed. Really appreciate your help
Is there by any chance a similar list of firms without SJTs/VIs? Thank you so much
Amazing - thank you so much! I'll make sure to check them all out for next cycle
That's so true! One of my questions at the end of the interview was about how they've been losing a lot of revenue and profit etc... and how the firm has been downhill for a while and what their strategy is in that regard... Technically, online the firm blames it on them leaving Moscow, so I specifically said that, obviously leaving Russia played a role in this, but besides this what are the other reasons (because leaving Russia isn't that convincing, especially considering that they're technically a US-UK firm...) But hey, one down, 19 applications to go 😂Sorry to hear that - if it makes you feel better, they seem like a sinking ship anyway. I predict BCLP will be the next firm to implode, we seem to have 1 every couple of years or so. Lots of partners seem to have jumped ship in the past couple of years.
....having said that, I will still make an application for a direct TC because beggars can't be choosers.

I'm guessing the firms with tiny intakes like King & Spalding, Brown Rudnick, and Proskauer Rose also aren't requiring any tests (not from personal experience unfortunately as I haven't applied to them).
I was musing on this last night. I was watching a youtube streamer, who has about 1500 videos each about 30-120 minutes, and in his more recent videos (compared to the earliest) he has a nice desk microphone, a better camera, and his introduction style sounds more fluent and confident.
I accidentally clicked on an older video, and while the main stream (the game being streamed) is identical in quality, the difference in video and sound quality of his voice/inlaid video of himself is very noticeable, and makes a big difference to the overall quality of the stream.
I was thinking therefore that it's likely that if you have a nice camera and microphone, then it's going to create an immediate better impression than if you are using just whatever your laptop comes with.
Received Akin Spring VS PFO at 16:06.
Does anyone have tips for the Penningtons Manches AC? I got an invite yesterday and it's my first one ever! Would appreciate anything
LOL must've hit too close to home. Check back in a couple of months and see if your interviewers still work at the firm.
Are Hogan Lovells holding ACs yet for vacations schemes? Am I the only one who hasn't heard back? I did the WG/application at the deadline.
I felt like I had a strong app and they ringed me few days ago saying there's another opening, saw that as a good sign but apparently i'm wrong
worth emailing them to check tho just hoping they don't give the"extremely high volume of applications" bs. Thanks!
Did you manage to find any info about this? Would love to hear it if you did and are willing to share!
Congratualtions! Could I ask what time you received your VI invite? Im trying to figure out if theyre sending them out all in one go or in batches.
I got an AC invite like 10 mins ago, my VI was on the 4th
Finally.... Akin PFO
Maybe they saw my rant and realised they needed to send out a formal rejection email 🤣
