I got an email about 10 minutes ago with a telephone interview so I think emails are starting to go out now! Good luck!

Congratulations🥳!
What office did you apply to if you don’t mind me asking?

Congrats! Let’s hope we all hear back today one way or another

Anyone who has done in person AC for OC know when we are going to hear back?

Hi!
I have a Browne Jacobson TI coming up and I was just wondering if anyone has any tips? I am a non-law final year student and this is my first interview with a law firm! I am really excited, but any tips would be massively appreciated!
(for context it is a 15 minute interview and they say it's to understand our commitment and motivation as well as assess a number of attributes)

When did you hear back from them?

I'm not sure, they didn't tell us. Some1 on my AC said 3-4 days but idk who told them that!

They might be waiting to finish the AC before sending offers? They were options until tomorrow when I chose mine but I don't know if there are some later.

Gibson Dunn never once got back to me hehehe (VS), anyone still waiting?

 

[jacksollaf]

Has anyone completed the Stephenson Harwood SJT/video interview? I would appreciate any help. I am happy to share feedback on the video interview or assessment center experiences at Baker McKenzie, White & Case, Linklaters, and Jones Day.

Did they already send them?

Did they already send them?

A few of us got sent online assesment invites yesterday, although there may be further batches to come. I guess they are dealing with Spring VS applicants first and Summer VS (1 & 2) afterwards? I applied for all 3 because I’m indecisive. 😂​

Hi, if you don’t mind me asking, which office did you apply to and when did you hear back? Thank you!

@Chris Brown If you don’t mind sharing, I’m sure we would love a list of your application and interview tips & dos and don’ts that you’ve learnt this cycle. You’ve secured VSs at elite US firms in your first cycle so you of course know what you’re doing! No pressure only if you feel comfortable

ahh ok, got it thanks! Tbf I applied a few hours before the deadline, so probably will receive it last

Yeah of course! Once I get through the end of this cycle, I will post a breakdown of my applications and interviews. As it is my first cycle, I can only go based off of my experience this time around. I have a few firms left to hear back from! 🙂​

Is it ok/common to accept a TC offer and then do another VS/TC interview at another firm? + should I avoid telling the second firm that I alr have an accepted TC offer @Jessica Booker @Amma Usman @Andrei Radu
