    2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion

    Simmons and Simmons sent me an email saying they have now reached full capacity on their schemes. Is that just a standard rejection as a result of my VI not being good enough, or they generally didn't have space regardless of my performance? Disappointing either way

    Next application cycle, i'll definitely try my hardest to apply to 20-30 firms From everything here, it seems like a numbers game to a large extent and tailoring my apps to 10 or so firms has not yielded the best results thus far. I saw quite a few received PFOs from Ashurst. Anyone else still...

    I’d probably just put an incoming vac scheme/ Tc on my LinkedIn, but won’t write some long motivational monologue about it. But that’s just me 😂
