    Is it possible to request transferring to another scheme after you've signed the offer? The firm's deadline for signing is next week but I'm waiting to hear back from two other firms (both will likely to take 2 weeks+ to get back) 😭 what should I do

    If a firm offers you one scheme in the letter can you request transferring to another (they run 2 schemes)?

    honestly no need to worry about the case study, it was very informal (~10min) and so far among the easier/more conversational ones I've done at various firms.

    I was in the Monday group too! Haven't heard back (not surprised as I absolutely bombed one of the scenarios) but I guess we'll find out next week then

    Hey does anyone know how long Freshfields takes to send the official offer letter? Received the call last week but still haven't got the email.

    Yes an application only gets proceeded if the benchmark of the online test is met

    It wouldn't be wrong I think, but I'd suggest check if the firm has a Campus Ambassador at your university, and if so it'd be probably more appropriate to reach out to them first (I'm a current SC firm Campus Ambassador and getting the firm involved in uni events is essentially the job we're tasked)
