Hey Guest, do you have a question for graduate recruitment? Gemma Baker from Willkie is live to answer your questions!
Pretty true for US firms. Because intakes are small there’s more emphasis placed on recruiting from people who know the firm better through the VS. At most I think only one or two places are given to direct TC applicants and this is only if the firm has people from the VS who turn their offers downDo Latham aim to recruit most trainees from their VS? Some have said as far as US firms go, they recruit more than others from direct TC apps too but not sure how true that is...? Thanks
Nope! Not necessary although I’d imagine you can if you want toIf a firm sends a VS welcome pack, do people email grad rec thanking them?
They said end of June so I’m hoping for something this week!Has anyone heard back from Howard Kennedy after the VI?

I am in the same situation as you. When did you submit the application? Has 7 days passed from your submission date since they mention it that we will get the test link within 7 days.Did anyone hear back from Pinsent Masons yet?
On a separate note, I applied to Ashurst and still haven't gotten the test. Is it worth an email to grad rec or would I turn them the wrong way by emailing them?
Is it like a set of gifts or just information? If the former, a very brief thank you would be nice. If it’s just induction materials, no need to thank them!If a firm sends a VS welcome pack, do people email grad rec thanking them?
Finished my fieldfisher test, it’s just like the regular Capp test SST! Has anyone started hearing back yet?
They’ve been pretty busy with vacation schemes ending last Friday. So you might get your tests soon 🙂Did anyone hear back from Pinsent Masons yet?

Normally the links are sent to you in your email and they should direct you to the website. I would email grad rec about this and say that the links don’t work. Don’t say that you left it last minute though 😂Hi guys, I need help with an urgent query. Its my last day to complete the Ashurst online tests, but I can't find them anywhere! When I follow the links in the email, it takes me back to my CVmail page but the tests aren't there.
Does anybody know where to find Ashursts tests on the CVmail page?
