Finished Dechert AC today! It went better than I thought. Everyone was so down-to-earth, the commercial case study was also very similar to a case that I've done at a negotiation competition. Overall it was very manageable and relaxed. However, I felt that I was not able to build rapport with...
Hi, I have my Dechert AC coming up this Friday and it will be held virtually. Does anyone know how technical the interview is going to be? I have seen on Ziplaw that past year questions included “what is a LBO”/“Name the different steps in M&A”. I’m wondering if it’s the same level of...
Had an absolutely crazy week, I am so burnt out from all the interviews and events but also grateful for the opportunities I had. Here's a quick recap:
The win some:
- The Travers interview was surprisingly very enjoyable and conversational.
- The finance internship interview was less...
Has anyone done the first round interview for Travers? How long do they take to get back?
In their post-interview follow up it said “as soon as possible” which is really vague so I’d appreciate a more concrete timeline! Thank you!
Who are Travers Smith's competitors? I see they are very well-balanced and traverse (all pun intended) many practice areas, should I be referring to their practice area/sector competitors or overall competitors?
Thank you! I submitted on 29 Oct. Yes it was fairly quick, and I didn't expect them to call me to schedule the interview. I declined it twice thinking it was a scam call 🤣
Week of agonising silence from all my American firm applications but just got a call from Travers Smith inviting me to interview next week! This is for the direct TC route btw. Really liked the firm when I interacted with them last year, Grateful for the small win to brighten up my weekend 😄...
Does anyone know if Kirkland takes non-law trainees? Their website states they provide sponsorship for PGDL, but I recall someone on this thread mentioning they do not in practice take in non-law people.
Wanted to ask a question in the other thread but it looks a bit busy at the moment so I will put it here...
I am keen to apply to King & Spalding's insight programmes but none of their dates work for me. Does anyone know if they will be at any virtual law fairs? How else can we build...
Hello friends, I'm back for my application diary ✨
My inbox has been super quiet this week. I submitted the TC app for Travers and Open Day app for Cooley yesterday. I am quite (pleasantly) surprised that these days I am able to finish more than 1 application a day - I used to take 3-5 days to...
