    Well in response to my spamming yes (not proud of it 😂). Not sure this only applies to my cohort of ACs from early Feb or if it's region-specific or anything (applied to Edinburgh)

    I've done both of that but no responses all day. Thanks though! Just trying to ask for an update on my AC that was two weeks ago. They told us they would get back to us around this time and I'm not keen on doing taking up two spots on other ACs (tomorrow and Friday). All of these firms have the...

    Ringed three of Pinsents' GR members and got into voicemail for all of them throughout this morning and this afternoon. Looks like I'm going to have to attend my AC tomorrow and Friday

    I kindly asked Pinsents for an update on my AC by email just because I need to travel for my next in-person AC and I would withdraw the in-person one if Pinsents gives me an offer. Ideally, this wouldn't happen too close to the assigned day (this Thursday). They haven't gotten back to me since...

    Has anyone heard from Pinsent Masons post-AC (especially the Feb 9th one)? If so how long did it take?

    Wanted to ask if it is appropriate to rush and ask for an outcome to an AC I attended on Feb 9th? Have a couple of ACs scheduled for next week and I don't want to spend hours preparing + taking up an AC space just to potentially withdraw. Thanks! @Jessica Booker

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Hi! I posted in the VS app thread yesterday but did not tag anyone (my mistake). In my message I added more details about the specific firm names and didn't want to seem like I was spamming the main VS forum or sounding ungrateful. I have edited the original post to tag you. Thanks for your...

    DLA Summer Internship secured :D So happy and grateful for everyone on this forum but also kind of anxious about having to sign my contract before my other two ACs. One of the two offers direct TC, so should I ask to convert before or after that AC? The other AC is even later in February, and...

    I was wondering if it is inappropriate to ask for the percentage of vac schemers that are recruited onto the training contract prior to attending my AC? Edit: I know CMS has said they recruit 90% of vac schemers onto their traineeship and was wondering if anyone has this info for DLA and...

    I looked through my emails and I didn't see any WGT test result email. I just got the video interview link a month after. I do know other people have received their post-WGT email two days after submitting and some 16 days. Looks like it varies.

    Talk about the news with some analysis, why you're particularly interested in it, and why it's relevant to the firm (expansion plans? Client opportunities? Challenges? etc.)
