    Do you mean the CAPP test? That should be emailed to you... If you would like to see the WG results, you can email them and ask :)

    Hearing Back from Law Firms, Assessment Centres & Interview Tips - 2019 - 2020

    I don't think there is one right answer for this, the approach I take is: - What I studied at uni - Work experience - extra curricular positions/ relevant hobby I try to bend it into a narrative of how I ended up in the interview seat at the particular firm. Try to keep it concise and snappy...

    Hearing Back from Law Firms, Assessment Centres & Interview Tips - 2019 - 2020

    I haven't heard back yet. I've heard rejections and invitations were sent out. I suppose this means they are still going through applications.

    Linklaters 2019/20 Application

    Grad rec emailed me on Thursday at 6pm to say my A level grades had not pulled through. I provided these details and then received an email yesterday to say my application was under review. They must not have even looked at mine until late on Thursday so it seems they are still going through...

    Linklaters 2019/20 Application

    There were not any boxes for work experience. This was confirmed by grad rec when I met them at an event. I specifically remember because I wanted to reapply and explain that I went to an event at Linklaters, but they said I would not be able to. I think they ask for w/e if you get invited to an...

    Hearing Back from Law Firms, Assessment Centres & Interview Tips - 2019 - 2020

    I feel your pain but we are all in the same boat. Some people get TC's quickly but I think that is the exception rather than the rule. As Alice said the other day, a partner she spoke to said the more rejections the trainee has had, the better they are when they actually land a TC. Take each...

    Linklaters 2019/20 Application

    You must have passed the benchmark otherwise you would not have been asked to reapply. They may look at scores for the WG test to decide who to invite to AC but I have a feeling it is more to do with the CAPP test element. That is just my guess anyway...
