Ah yes I saw this! Think the deadline has already passed so might have to keep my eyes peeled next year!

People heard anything from Akin Gump, V&E, or Mofo? Only seen one or two interviews for Akin but nothing from the others.
Has anyone who applied to CMS near the deadline heard back?
Is anyone still waiting to hear back from CMS post VI?
I guess I won't be hearing anything about my apps this week either... 
😰
😰I mean, you say don't guess, but if you don't know the answer then you've literally no other choice but guess or leave it blank (which would get you no marks anyways) 🤷♀️
This may have a really obvious answer but if you have secured a VS, is it something you can add to your app? Speaking in future tense of course.
Can I also ask where you found this information?
It says on their application confirmation email that they will get back to applicants by the end of February.

Yes! For the summary bit, saying something along the lines of "Secured a two week placement at X firm" should be enough. Alternatively, instead of making it a separate work experience entry you could include it in the additional information section (if there is one). Thats what I did for direct TC apps I made.
Good luck! I submitted mine 19th but still waiting. I keep re-checking my emails lol
@Jessica Booker
Is it appropriate to email graduate recruitment to check the status of your application? I applied 30/11 and people received video interviews last week and AC's are just over a week away.

If you haven't got the email for the next stage by 5pm today you will have been unsuccessful.
London + Scotland have been contacted already.
Can I also ask where you got this information? My portal seems to have been updated by I have not heard a thing.
Take the time to answer the question rather than just guess.
If you don't know, leave it blank and move on you can always complete it later.
My point is you aren't going to get very far just guessing when you need all 5 right to get a mark.
I'm not sure it is the best idea to comment what you have on here, when no one has any idea if this is true. You could make some people very anxious by saying they will be unsuccessful if they don't hear anything by 5pm today. I haven't heard anything from PM yet, but I also haven't seen anyone on here get any news who applied to the Manchester office like me. Those applying to London and Scotland seem to have received rejections and invites to the next stage, so it seems unlikely that other offices will automatically be unsuccessful if they haven't heard back by 5pm when not many applying to the regional offices seem to have heard anything yet.
Graduate Recruitment are probably just beginning to go through the applications for the regional offices so try not to worry if you haven't heard anything yet, no news is good news and it is not a rejection until you actually receive the rejection email! Stay positive everyone! 🙂
