Rejection post-AC for King & Spalding... I am quite gutted, but 1) I still have a VS lined up for the spring with another law firm, 2) I think it was actually a great experience, 3) there were so many great candidates that day that if I had to make a shortlist, I would find it very tricky too!- D95

Nothing from Winston & Strawn. Someone posted here a couple of weeks ago that they got their invite but I think most of us are still in the limbo.- D95

Hey, sometimes you might feel that the interview did not go well but in fact your performance could have been better that you think it was! I know it is not always a rule, on one occasion I knew instantly I screwed up too and when the rejection came I was like "yeah, fair enough" BUT equally, I...- D95

So.... DAC Beachcroft. It's been radio silence for me and my friend ever since we completed our VI more than a month ago. Anyone going through the excruciating pain of waiting for their decision, too?- D95

Still waiting, but considering that people got their interview invites last week I guess it will be (yet another) PFO.- D95

As far as I know, there is only one assessment day but split into two slots - I am in the morning one, how about you?- D95

Assessment Day - Negotiation exercise and presentation
Bump. I think we are in the assessment for the same law firm then :) If someone more experienced could share their knowledge here about these exercises, I too would be grateful as I was never at the AC for which I had to prepare in advance (the presentation bit). @Jaysen do you have any tips...- D95

Hearing Back from Law Firms, Assessment Centres & Interview Tips - 2019 - 2020
Just received a PFO after an application that I spent hours on - one that I was quite sure was one of my best to date and which was actually reviewed for me by two people, including a current trainee at the said firm. I honestly do not know what went wrong, I am scanning it right now and I keep...- D95

Is anybody still waiting for Stevens & Bolton? I know that two people already got their interview invites last week but I have heard nothing yet. Probably a PFO at this point, but I am trying not to lose hope.- D95

Two years ago I misspelled my own name (!) in the email by accident but I was still invited to an interview, so all hope is not lost! :) Obviously not a great situation to be in, but maybe they won't even notice.- D95

No, it is for TC 2021 :) They had a window opened for this between October to December. Also, they definitely do not recruit on a rolling basis but only once all applications are submitted. For reference, I applied on 27 December (so a few days before the deadline) and heard back yesterday with...- D95

Has anyone ever done the AC at King & Spalding and could possibly offer some insight? (Yeah, I got the invite. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity. In the words of the genius of our times, Ms Taylor Swift: "The drought was the very worst".)- D95

Anyone heard from DAC Beachcroft (post-VI),McGuire Woods, Winston & Strawn, Stevens & Bolton, King & Spalding? I am trying to tell myself that it's because they are still reviewing, but something tells me I've been ghosted...- D95
