    Mayer Brown AC invite - does anyone have any advice for it? :) also, does anyone know if this is the final or first stage of the interview process? I assume first because it says this AC consists of a group exercise and fact-find task and doesn't mention any interview.

TI was with grad recruitment and no lawyers, but they said they'd pass on notes from the TI to the interviewing...

    @Jessica Booker Do law firms care about if your law degree is an honours degree? Tbh I don't actually know the difference but someone at my uni told me that we don't get an honours degree if we don't do a dissertation, and a dissertation here is optional so loads of people aren't doing one
