    Does anyone have tips for a written assessment in the form of an article? Usually it's an email to a client/partner and unsure how to prepare for this. Thank you! @Jessica Booker @Andrei Radu

    I got the invite and was told it would be online due to train strikes. I don’t think it’s a case of not being successful enough for in person as they would have probably said in the email that they would like to move you specifically to the online one.

    I’ve received a Reed Smith Open day invite but it clashes with another open day that the deadline to pull out of has passed. They have a virtual open day, would I be able to ask to be transferred to the virtual one? Would this look bad to the firm?

    Is there any point applying to a from in which you’ve been rejected for thier open day? Because surely there’s a higher threshold for vacation schemes? Has any one experienced this?
