Training Contracts for Beginners
Regarding 7. law firms pay for your travel expenses to and from an AC - my flights from Madrid are being paid for by Macfarlanes for instance! Normally they say anything upwards of £150 but if you often explain your individual circumstances they can be quite accommodating!- Daniel Boden

Hearing Back from Firms + AC & Interview Tips Share - 2018 - 2019

Saw the below headline today in The Lawyer @Jaysen I'm not sure if you would be able to copy and paste the article into this thread so I and others can view it (I'm assuming, because of your law firm insights which refer to The Lawyer, that you have a subscription to the magazine?) - I think it...- Daniel Boden

Book recommendations?
A book I've really enjoyed reading recently is Joe Navarro 'What EVERY Body is saying' - really interesting insight into human body language and how to read people which is always helpful for a whole host of situations. Multiple PDF's online of the whole book if you don't mind reading on a screen!- Daniel Boden

Firm updates following submission of applications
Just got rejected by Linklaters after passing their Watson Glaser Test (found out I passed the test yesterday). Applied on the Monday 22nd October so they've got back to me fairly quickly despite not operating rolling recruitment which I thought was interesting.- Daniel Boden

White & Case open days application section
No I think it further demonstrates your interest in law! You could then mention how you learnt about a particular practice area at Clifford Chance which interests you and then are applying to White & Case as it has an excellent reputation in that field e.g. Capital Markets- Daniel Boden
