    Someone might have asked already, but anyone know whether Debevoise sends all Open Day invites in one go or if they’re over time? I know there are multiple open days, but didn’t see as many people here get an invite as would be expected

    I can never help but be offended when I get a feedback report for a silly online assessment telling me I have low skill or competency in xyz, because I know I don’t - I tend to avoid firms that do these because it just feels so insane to judge based on this kind of thing??
