anyone else heard from DWF? Wondering if they’ve starting to get through the applications (saw one VI invite)
Haven't heard back from either kennedys or hill dickinson post tests!What a successful day for so many people! Congrats everyone!
Just wondering if anyone has heard back from SPB (post VI), Kennedys (post SST) or Hill Dickinson (post WG) ?
Still haven't heard back from 2018-19 cycleanyone else heard from DWF? Wondering if they’ve starting to get through the applications (saw one VI invite)
I don't think they are recruiting on a rolling basis, I was asking about the AC which was supposed to take place last year lol (thx miss rona ;p)Hi, congratulations.
Sorry this isn’t relevant, but I’m presuming that Gateley is recruiting on a rolling basis, seen as though their deadline is the 8th Feb?
I’ve been trying to find out if they are rolling or not.
just recieved eversheds VI for London does anyone have any tips and pointers for this?
I'm in the same boat too. Which office did you apply for?I did my CMS VI around 3 weeks ago but haven't heard back - is it unlikely to go forward at this point? (i know people who have finished their ACs and gotten vacation scheme offers)
Still waiting on them as wellHas anyone heard from shearman? Feel like I haven’t seen anyone received an invite or offer in the past week or so
Hiya,I'm hoping for some advice about an AC presentation I have coming up. The firm has given a totally free reign on topic choice other than it should be of interest to me, and it "does not have to be a legal topic, however it must link to legal implications or the legal sector". I have four years' work experience in PR, so I'm wondering if doing my presentation about PR issues would be a good idea? It's an area that I know a lot about, but I'm really wary of pigeon holing myself too much and making it look like I don't have any other interests/anything else to offer the firm, other than my background in PR.
I also previously worked in cyber security, so that's another option, and might be a bit more relevant and show more commercial awareness?
I'd be really grateful for any advice!
It's not a no until you get that email 😁Still haven't heard back from 2018-19 cycle
100% Watson's daily ! It's honestly all you need for commercial awareness stuff imoCan anyone recommend any platforms to stay commercially aware of specific sectors? Other than the FT, I struggle to find a platform specifically geared towards giving updates/comments on current trends about a certain industry/industries. I am mainly interested in energy and shipping. Thanks
Forever hopeful hahaha. TBF I did email one firm MONTHS after I'd applied, well into the next recruitment cycle, asking if I could get an answer just so I could reapply (the system wouldn't let me apply with a live application still running) and they turned around and offered me an interview. Anything's possible.It's not a no until you get that email 😁
Invitation for Stevenson Harwood’s critical thinking test! Applied on 30th Jan.
Folk have been wearing all sorts so I wouldn't worry too much. Personally I bought an external USB microphone which sits on my desk out of shot of my webcam, and I just let audio run out of my main speakers. Mic wasn't super expensive, like £40 topsBit of a wierd q - but for virtual interviews would it be okay to wear large over the ear headphones (mine are light pink ahah) I don't currently have my usual wired ones which I feel look slightly more professional and I don't own airpods
I think they would leave a voicemail!This might be a silly question, but what happens if you miss the phone call with the results from your AC? The main reason I ask this is because I have a bad habit of waking up rather late... morning phone calls would likely go unanswered...
I missed mine once and they emailed me! On the other hand, I got woken up at around half 9 another time by a good ol' morning rejection and I wish I'd slept through that lolThis might be a silly question, but what happens if you miss the phone call with the results from your AC?

HiyaAre people wearing suit jackets during their AC/interviews? I am curious what others have been doing or have observed. I do recognise that the standard is formal attire for an interview. However, anecdotally I've heard of some partners suggesting that candidates could lose their tie or were themselves dressed very informally.
