Time for another update and this time for one of my top 2 firms! So many steps involved but hopefully it pays off. Also thanking the law gods that it's another assessment centre that doesn't include a group activity (just an interview and a presentation again) 🤞

Hi all
I thought I would give in a create a thread to post little updates on my search for a training contract mostly to be accountable, but also because I want people to tell! I am going through this process pretty incognito (only my partner knows) and I need a place to let it all out...
Hate how some firms send you assessment test reports automatically. At least let me live a few moments in delusion before you tell me all the ways I could improve 🫠
