Macfarlanes Assessment Centre
Dear community, I have taken the liberty to address a silly question here - please accept my apologies for it, but I don't get what I ought to do. On the app. page, there are a few questions such as to explain why Macfarlanes and what qualities successful lawyers should have at the firm; the...- Frank

Private equity resources
I did PE during my Corporate Finance classes. Though the internet is full of resources, I strongly recommend a chapter in a book. It has about 20 pages (well, the chapter has 50, but 20 are essential) - if you still have your uni account, I think you can download it. Drop me a line in private...- Frank

Does Ashurst send an automatic email which informs candidates if they've failed to meet the pass mark for Revelian? I'm genuinely curious about my performance in that test.- Frank

Covington Application
Hey I had the same doubts myself! My guess is to go for the former (and explain how) because otherwise they’d have mentioned to write how we demonstrated those skills in the past. For example, the question after the one in your quote asks to explain when we brought a positive contribution to a...- Frank

Fourth year of applications... perhaps my final year?
May I give you my opinion on your post, particularly on the ABC A-levels. The thing with your background is that it's very diverse, and you shouldn't believe that the grades you had ages ago will be the chip on your shoulder. Any recruiter who will assess your academic credentials will not put...- Frank

How to jump back from rejection?
I know exactly how you feel; my last TC AC was at one of the MC firms and still cannot comprehend how I failed it, especially since I had put lots of effort into it. Unfortunately, sometimes it happens that despite our prep, the interviewing process is, eventually, subjective - apart from all...- Frank

Non-law struggling to apply
