Vacation Scheme Top Tips
I have a question ahead of day 1 of my Travers scheme tomorrow. They are going to make us do a mock pitch to an investor. I did an interview for the scheme rather than an AC, so I really have no experience at all of group exercises like this. Any advice is appreciated!- Emily Collett

Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!
Hey again, Thanks for the advice! Simmons & Simmons have 4 designated sections for work experience and then an 'other relevant experience' section at the bottom. Perhaps down there? Or is that inappropriate because it wouldn't be chronological... :confused:- Emily Collett

Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!
Hi Jessica, I'm currently applying to Simmons & Simmons. I have a winter scheme at Travers lined up. Their form is really limited, so the only place I'd be able to mention this would be if I added it as a work experience section. A) do I want to mention it on forms before I've done it and B)...- Emily Collett

Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!
Hi Jessica, Sorry if you've answered this elsewhere, but I've just been offered a winter vacation scheme. I currently have another winter vacation scheme application pending that would clash with this one. The VS I've got has a really low chance of converting to a TC, so I still really want to...- Emily Collett

Travers Smith Interview
They did end up telling me a few days ago who the interview would be with. I had it today. I found it extremely challenging, but not in an ‘oh they’re really pushing me to my limits, this is great’ way. To anyone about to do one, I’d recommend that you brush up loads on commercial awareness!- Emily Collett

Travers Smith Interview
I've just received my invitation to Travers Smith's winter vacation scheme interview, happening next week! Has anyone interviewed with them yet this year?

Noticed a typo after submission
I typed a paragraph about my 'most proud achievement' (as the firm phrased it), then at the end of the paragraph I've typed out the word 'proudest' where I was testing spellcheck to see if it was a word!! On one hand it may not be the end of the world because it's not like I've shown a poor...- Emily Collett

Noticed a typo after submission
Hi all, I’m wondering if anyone has ever noticed a typo after submission (+ the deadline has passed) and, if so, would it be absolutely crazy to contact grad rec or something? I put my blood sweat and tears into this application and I’d love for them to know that I’ve seen the error and...- Emily Collett
