    Depends! I know CC for those starting in February 2024 is making them do the accelerated LPC Msc. I think HSF however is making you do the SQE – if you really want to know I suggest it would be best to ask the firm directly

    it was an offer and I completed the AC on the 7th of May! If nobody has contacted you in 3 weeks I defo suggest emailing them. Everyone I know who did the AC heard back within 3 days (acceptance or rejection)

    When it comes to getting VS's I think it's very important to remember getting 1 is the biggest challenge out there. The applicants who can secure one in the first place often have the necessary skills to secure another (i.e. strong commercial awareness, the ability to write good applications...

    Really depends. For my first interview, I had the chance to ask 1. For my second, I didn't since we ran out of time. For the final instance the partner was more than happy to go over the time (we went 20 minutes over) and I was able to ask multiple questions. :)

    Hey all! Hope you're well. For anyone who did the HSF AC, I was wondering whether you think the rumour is true about how if you're successful you'll hear back on the day of your interview, and if you are not you'll just receive an email rejection in a few days?

    Hi! The iphone notes app has a scanning feature. That's what I've always done and it has never brought any issues. I've used it for visa's, passport, unis etc so it should be fine for a firm

    Hi! Is anyone still waiting for V&E Post app? Seems most people have received a VI request so I think I might have been rejected without being informed.

    I emailed them a while back and they said that the latest I'd hear back by is mid-March so you still have some time. Email away if you want though (when they told me I'll hear back by Mid-March after my email I received an AC invite in 2 days haha).

    I listened to all the Attack on Titan and Naruto Theme Songs + OST's right up to my AC -- It really put me in the mood to do well haha. Not sure if it'll work for everyone!

    Hi! I got a TC at CC with 0 legal experience (or commercial in general) so this might help. Then again, CC doesn't have vac schemes (excluding SPARK) so I'm not sure how relevant this is for every firm. I did 3 virtual experience programmes (Forage) -- some firms see this as the equivalent of...
