    Also just to add onto what Hazal said, HSF’s deadline is soon approaching (I believe it is tomorrow) and as a result, there may be an influx of applications coming in all at once, this could explain why the test invite is delayed.

    How can I add more work experiences at Kirkland &Ellis app?

    I would add the various open days within your CV (as you will have to attach this to your application),if you do this, you will have space to discuss your experience as an English teacher in the work experience section.

    Linklaters

    You have to pass the WGT first and then they will read your application, it is very similar to CC. I think they also make you redo the WGT at the AC aswell.
