    Hi all, I have an AC coming up with CMS and I was wondering if anyone can give me tips/insights? What would be the best way to approach the speed networking session as I understand it's also quite business-related? Thank you in advance!

    Totally screwed up video interview

    I actually went through the same thing for my Simmons video interview. Panicked after the first question. I answered the rest, but it was the worst video interview I had done because it was all 'ahh' 'umm' and I don't remember one coherent sentence. It didn't work out with Simmons, but I'd say...

    Shearman & Sterling Winter Vacation Scheme

    Hi, I applied and did the interview about three weeks ago. They told me that they'd get back to me sometime in the beginning of Nov. Also, they posted a picture on LinkedIn the other day and it said that they'll be getting back to people over the next few weeks. So hopefully we'll hear back next...

    Cleary Gottlieb

    Hi, I have a straight TC interview coming up with Cleary and was wondering if anyone has experienced it? I believe it's different to the open day + vacation scheme interview as there doesn't seem to be a group exercise element involved. Any info will be much appreciated!
