    Yeah, it’s the same situation for me. Sent in the application but didn’t get any confirmation that NRF received my application. Best to wait till today evening, hopefully they send the confirmation email as it could be that their systems don’t work/respond on Sunday, just my assumption

    Has anyone here applied to Winckworth Sherwood’s 2026 TC? If so, have you heard back anything post app? They were supposed to come back to candidates by this week and I haven’t heard back. Starting to think it might be another PFO 😭

    W&C PFO post app. Absolute joke of a process!!! Are law firms actually serious about what they preach day in day out in all these networking events??? I diligently follow every and any advice that I’ve received so far and to still think it’s not enough is seriously just too frustrating. Feels...

Am I that bad or do firms really hate me?? (apologies for the weird questions) but it seems...

    From Campus to Cubicle: Miss Piggy's Journey 🐽

    That’s great advice on how to write a dissertation. In my experience of having written one, it really helps if ur critical in ur analysis. Ultimately, that’s what a dissertation evaluates. Do u have the capability to come up with logical arguments without diluting the original theme. Tricky but...
