    Haven't heard anything from White & Case and Latham & Watkins after completing their VIs for the WVS (7 and 5 working days ago resp) so I am beginning to think it is a PFO I remember somebody mentioned that the 19th was the last of the AC days at W&C?

    @Jessica Booker - I could really use your advice on this! My email from Cleary says: "Ahead of the assessment day, we would ask you to complete the following Watson Glaser test. The deadline to complete the test is November 16, 2021." Does this mean that the deadline is 11:59 tonight (15th) or...

    Hello - Panic moment! @Jessica Booker I sat down to record my Latham VI, but the interview is not progressing beyond recording the practice question. In fact, it only allows me to press record - I can't stop recording or play it back either, let alone proceed beyond it. Given that it is 7PM...

    Cleary Winter VS AC - does anyone have any advice on how I should prep? Was also wondering if anyone knows how long W&C takes to respond post VI? I did my VI last friday (5th November) but haven't heard anything since. Seems like the last of the ACs are next week (and some people have already...

    Emailed Cleary for an update on my application - they wrote back saying they are currently still reviewing and hoping to notify outcomes by the end of this week. Fyi for anyone else waiting!

    Was wondering the same! I haven't heard anything either, but some people did get VI invites on Friday. Hope this doesn't mean that it's a PFO :(

    @Ahi88 did you also change your answers to questions like why commercial law? I am reapplying to a few firms this year (Last year I unthinkingly applied for a direct TC only to learn that they most likely didn't even consider my application because they filled all available TC slots from the...

    I am still waiting too. I even emailed them requesting an update but no response. I saw only one person posted that they got an AC invite a few days ago- seems very low? I recall that quite a few people on this platform posted about getting the telephone interview
