    Tbh I'd call them again and say that it seems incredibly unfair that my application is disadvantaged because of a technical issue outside of my control or something along those lines. Why on earth could they not send you another link?!?

    That seems really odd imo. I've had a few issues with tests when I was applying and every firm just resent the link/gave me another link to complete the test on so this approach from A&O seems very surprising... did they say why they can't?

    I've just copied the actual links of the posts/threads which should make it easier for you? Ah okay yeah that could be it - I'll have a look now Edit: no all my bookmarks seem to be set to public so I have no idea why that's the case. Oh well, but no harm done

    I don't see any of the bottom three options when I look to insert them - as in 'link to these messages'; 'quote these messages' and 'cancel' aren't visible as I can't scroll down to see them for some reason?

    It would make the most sense for these threads to be cyclical rather than on a calendar year basis imo

    These names are for high-end/high-value deals. For mid-market PE, Travers Smith and Macfarlanes are very well regarded and have excellent reputations with some really good lawyers. For PE/VC investment, Taylor Wessing are very good. In the Funds space, outside of US firms, Eversheds, HSF and...

    Funniest/Stupidest Thing You've Said in an Interview?

    Bit late to this thread, but my personal favourite is when I was asked what skills do you think are important for a lawyer to have, particularly at our firm. Whilst explaining why being very personable is an incredibly important skill for a lawyer both in attracting clients but also getting...
