Hey Guest, do you have a question for graduate recruitment? Gemma Baker from Willkie is live to answer your questions!
Hi, the slots available were from the 9th to 12th August - I got the email yesterday afternoon so hopefully you'll get your soon! 🤞Have you been offered a place though? If so- when we’re the slots available? (Wishful thinking lol)
Congrats!!! Do you know anyone else who has heard ? Anyone else heard Freshfields AC?Hi, the slots available were from the 9th to 12th August - I got the email yesterday afternoon so hopefully you'll get your soon! 🤞
I haven’t heard anything post WG. My application hasn’t been updated since the 23rd July when I received the WG link!Congrats!!! Do you know anyone else who has heard ? Anyone else heard Freshfields AC?
Congratulations!Slight heart palpitations this morning as I just received a TC offer from Winckworth Sherwood...while I was drafting my acceptance letter for my other TC offer! And an earlier start too. Unreal.
Ok phew. Same as me! Fingers crossed for us !!!!I haven’t heard anything post WG. My application hasn’t been updated since the 23rd July when I received the WG link!
Hi I can't offer any advice but you may find this thread helpful https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/commercial-interview-practice.884/I would really appreciate some advice on Macfarlanes AC
It is automatic yes! I think everyone that passes the screening questions gets a WG invite and they then review the WG score alongside the applicationJust got Hogan Lovells WG invite - pretty sure it's automatic, but it has been weeks since I applied - anyone know if it's automatic or not?
Does anyone have any advice for Macfarlanes AC??

Unlikely to influence later stages of the recruitment process directly.Hi, not sure if this is a silly question but do WG scores only affect whether you get invited for AC? As in, if you meet the threshold score (and your application is good enough) and you get invited to the AC, will the WG score have any further impact on your application? I'm wondering if I should invest more time in WG prep - I know I usually meet the threshold scores but I'm not sure if getting an impressively high score will benefit my applications.
Thank you! Glad to know I can invest time in doing other more productive things!Unlikely to influence later stages of the recruitment process directly.
However, I have known psychometric assessments be used to verify specific competencies that were either difficult to assess or potentially had a question regarding ability in that area. For instance, if there is a slight question over a written exercise, a firm could look at something like a WG test result to see if they can see strengths (or weaknesses) in that too to help make a decision.
I don’t think it will be worthwhile heavily investing time to try and perfect your ability in these tests though, especially if you are already doing well in them.
