Hey guys,
Just to let you know that the forum team is running a new commercial discussion each week. Every weekend, they'll pick a new topic to discuss and anyone is open to ask questions/share their thoughts. This will be based on a story in the commercial newsletter.
The idea is to help anyone to develop their commercial awareness by actively engaging in topics that are currently in the news.
This week, the team are discussing Tesla's investment in bitcoin: https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/goodbye-fiat-tesla’s-investment-in-bitcoin.3426/post-64770

Just a special thanks to those who have posted rejections, awaiting and successful apps!
People always talk about their successes but this forum is very good at normalising rejection as sometimes I feel like I am the only one getting rejected especially at this time when I have a few firms that have been silent!

Have Willkie post-VI 'written analytical exercise' coming up. With the keyword being 'analytical', I'm guessing this will differ slightly from other written assessments. Does anyone have any experience with this/ tips on how best to prepare? As a general point, I've let myself down so far when it comes to the written assessment stage (I'm just a fairly slow reader and always leave myself too little time to do the write up) - so any tips with regard to time management during WAs would be much appreciated).
I am still waiting for firms since 1st February like Cooley but know what it feels like to be rejected. I feel you.Just a special thanks to those who have posted rejections, awaiting and successful apps!

Same, the interview went really well but made a mess of the written assessment!
Same with me. Found that written assessment insanely difficult. Oh well 😭
Anyone heard back from Debevoise about what date they’ve got for the open day?
They may well be releasing invites for AC's in batches to prevent some candidates from having more time to prep than others.
It sucks, I am waiting for 5 firms but for some of them I have been waiting for so long that it feels like rejection is imminent
I found out quite quickly after mine, maybe a week tops? Might even have been a few days.
My fiancee is on at me for a pair of Daschunds when we're settled in London 👀
Thank you! Do you remember if it was an email or a phone call? The phone calls are really stressful so I need to mentally prepare myself for it 😄
