wow congratulations!!! that is such good news
i was wondering if you could clarify what you meant by difficulties of applying as an international student? do you mean representing your overseas qualification as UCAS equivalent? or were you going through the stages of the interview process remotely?
thank you in advance!
I can't actually DM as it says you limit the people who can view your profile!
But, if you have any advice for the interview and would be happy sharing the kinds of questions asked that would be super helpful!
L&W VI invite received this evening, anyone got any advice they can give me?
This is the first recorded VI I have been invited to in a long time and the first for a TC, the previous one was for a scholarship so a bit different.

Congratulations! I'm now anxiously refreshing the application portal.... Could I ask when you applied?
I'm turning into a bit of a broken record but has anyone heard from Hogan Lovells for direct TC after submitting the app / with WG? Last year, I was sent WG immediately so slightly concerned it's been 10 days and have had nothing.
I meant more along the lines of some law firms preferring students who actually studied on LLB in the UK (which I did not)wow congratulations!!! that is such good news

Dang, I applied the day before so hope I hear back soon. Also still waiting on an application that I turned in back in early May..... Fingers crossed!
Hi all, i hope u’re all well 😊 Please may I know if most law firms are signatories of the ‘Voluntary code of recruitment for trainee solicitors’, and are thus obligated to follow it about its timeline to accept TC offers? Maybe @Jessica Booker is best positioned to answer this. Thank you! 😊

It’s a voluntary code - so no one is obligated to keep to it unfortunately. It seems these days fewer firms are following it too given the deadlines I have heard many firms giving this summer.
But if a firm doesn’t stick to it, then you don’t have to as a candidate either. You can just accept and then renege offers should that be something you have to do given short acceptance deadlines you are given.
Browne Jacobson, anyone? I got the email from them explaining they
Bringing this one back since it's almost been a month, has anyone heard back (apart from the email that explained they would need more time)?
Nothing since the 15th saying they were reviewing
