I know Fieldfisher is rolling but does anyone know if it would be too late to apply today for the 2023 TC (deadline 25th)?
Also, anyone who has applied, I have a couple of basic questions about the CV if anyone would mind!

Has anyone heard back from Addleshaw Goddard yet? I'm still completing my application but I'm starting to debate whether it's worth it because their website suggests they reserve few places for direct TC applicants.

My portal was updated to ‘reviewed’ on Friday but I have still heard nothing - waiting is the worst!
I applied direct last year and didn't hear back. It did seem as though they filled most of the TC's (if not all) for the office I applied to through their vac scheme. Even then, I would still say that it's worth applying. You've got nothing to lose, right?
mine still says application 'completed' from when I submitted it. I hate all this waiting. Every time I get an email I get really nervous!Mine says completed too 🤷♀️🤦

Assessment centres are designed to be tough. If they were easy then everyone would do well in them and it would be far more difficult for assessors to differentiate candidates (as they would all perform to the same level). I'd be more concerned if someone came out of an AC thinking it was easy than if they thought it was hard! I'd pretty much guarantee most candidates feel the way you are feeling right now - even the people who secured the job felt like it too!
Try not to worry too much - these things always seem to have gone a lot worse in your head than they actually did!
I've mentioned a couple of times here that, after my Travers interview, I thought I had bombed it because I completely fixated on two errors (which were, to me, glaring howlers) - and got the VS then the TC. Honestly you're probably fixating on wee small things.
Fingers crossed for a happy outcome for you!
Me too! When is yours?

A little surprised, as I felt my application was quite strong but I suppose it was to be expected this late on in the process. 🤷♀️
