I reached out back when I submitted my application - the timeline I was given was early to mid-April (not considering any delays that may have occurred since)
Yeah it's definitely thorough! It's consulting, not law, so not sure if that's standard practice there.
The internship is 8 weeks. I'd need the 2 days off 4 weeks into the internship. First round interviews will be in week 7, and final round interviews will be either on the last or...
There is a mandatory workshop for 2 full working days, first round interviews (3 interviews in one day), and final round interviews (3 interviews in one day).
I have enough paid time off, but I'm not sure whether taking days off will be seen in a negative light and influence final decisions re...
Hey! I have an interview coming up in August (I was given the dates already), but I will be working full-time then as intern. I am doing an internship at a company I really like and am worried that taking time off (4 days in total) to interview elsewhere will ruin my chances with the first...
So I took part in an inter-university commercial awareness competition recently. We were in small teams, and my teammate and I had to present back to the panel on a case study. Our presentation had multiple sections which we split amongst ourselves. They start first, I go next- all good so far...
That's a good question. I can't explain why vacation schemes pay the amount they do, but I have a banking internship lined up for the summer so I can maybe provide a bit of insight onto that. From my experience (obviously can't speak for all banks), the salary you get for the summer internship...
If I could add to the previous responses, I would personally approach this as an ESG topic more broadly. It's not just law firms, it's big companies like McDonalds, Starbucks, the Big Four, energy companies like Shell. There was a huge campaign on social media targeting any major company that...
Hey! I'm involved in a university society and we're organising a law event. A firm I've applied to are experts on the specific topic of the event and I think they'd be great to reach out to. Is there anything wrong with me reaching out to grad rec about this given I am an applicant?
How possible is it to defer vac scheme offers to the next application cycles (e.g., summer 2022 to winter 2022)? I understand that it will differ from firm to firm, but I'm wondering whether this is even an option
Not sure about supernova or spark, but I am on Strive's "shift(bootcamp)" (a legal tech course) and that programme is running very well- interesting course material, mentoring opportunities, open days with the partner law firms, and constant communication via slack.
Not saying this to...
Got in touch with grad rec and they said they are still reviewing applications and GBA scores. They aim to deliver all application outcomes in the next few weeks. :)
Hope this helps. It's not necessarily a PFO.
Hey! Did anyone here attend the Future City Lawyers Intro to Private Equity Webinar and would be willing to share their notes or the slides? I was feeling really unwell and couldn't make it.
So, I was just in a workshop with Hogan Lovells and they said that they have plenty more ACs coming up and that actually if you haven't heard back yet it's a good thing because it means your application is still under consideration!
Haven't applied to HL but I've seen a few posts from people...
Good luck! Sending you lots of positive energy :) Let us know how it goes and give yourself some credit for staying motivated and committed to the AC despite the circumstances. That's incredible resilience!
