Has anyone else received an email from the grad rec team of Eversheds about their open evening next Monday with the reimbursement form sent as an attachment to the email? I applied for their insight evening, was invited but then that got redacted and instead it was a PFO, so just slightly...- Harvey Specter

I submitted FF test one on Nov 5th and got stage two on Nov 10th, so 5 days between them. Think they send the tests in batches though so it could be more or less time for others.- Harvey Specter

I submitted the stage 1 test 5th Nov (short waiting period as I had requested adjustments) and I received the stage 2 test today. Seems they have quite a fast turnaround time for them.- Harvey Specter

Does anybody know what the email address is to email Hogan Lovells’ early careers? The test was sent by [email protected] but in the email itself, it states if we need to send an email regarding adjustments, we need to email [email protected]. I’m not...- Harvey Specter

I’m not sure whether this will be applicable to VS or DTC applications necessarily, simply because of how competitive they are, but there are a few firms which seem more willing to consider applicants who marginally miss their A-level criteria. I also achieved ABB in my A-levels and graduated...- Harvey Specter

The 1st Meet Cooley open day app closed on the 23rd Oct and invites were sent last Fri (31st Oct). I reckon the 2nd Meet Cooley open day will follow a similar process so invites might be sent around the 13th to 15th of Nov, since apps closed yesterday. If open day invites aren’t sent by the...- Harvey Specter

I don’t think the test itself is timed but there are certain components within the test where time is measured. The email says the test should take at least 60 minutes overall. If you stated you need reasonable adjustments in your application, then email them about it to ensure they have all...- Harvey Specter

I applied to Freshfields Oct 17 and got the first test Oct 27. They had some issues with the reasonable adjustments and sent reminders out to candidates about their tests and adjustments, even though they didn’t request any. They have just re-sent me the test with the adjustments, so there might...- Harvey Specter

They still consider mitigating circumstances and use the rare contextual recruitment tool, so they might be flexible with their requirements if there are reasons for lower than expected results. Seems like they have recently introduced this as a requirement. They received 210+ applications for...- Harvey Specter

Yeah I also attended an open day at Hogans last week and the early careers person said that with this question, they wanted you to select 3 or 4 open days or events, discuss them in detail and how they link back to the firm. It is the same for the other question which I think was about...- Harvey Specter
