Hey Guest, do you have a question for graduate recruitment? Gemma Baker from Willkie is live to answer your questions!
Hi guys, do you get a confirmation email after the WBD test?
they were staggered so don't worryAnyone else not got the email from Travers yet saying the process is taking a while?Do we think they’re just sending them out staggered cos since I saw the first post about it today I’ve been waiting and its not come through😅
I think the response to this question is generally that you can definitely do it, but you wont be looked at in the highest regard by grad rec. asking for a direct TC route when they're clearly not your priority might be pushing it ! thats just me thoI’m sure this has been answered several times so I’m sorry for asking again but I can’t find the posts!
I got a VS (yay!!!) and have accepted. Still have some outstanding apps and if (by some miracle) I receive a VS offer from one of those, is it OK to then decline that first VS having already accepted it and take another?
For those that have done that before, what do you say to the original firm - do you ask if you can be considered for a direct TC or??
Thank you very much!!!
Yes I also was thinking asking for the direct TC route is pretty cheeky haha! but seen people mention it on hereI think the response to this question is generally that you can definitely do it, but you wont be looked at in the highest regard by grad rec. asking for a direct TC route when they're clearly not your priority might be pushing it ! thats just me tho
Does anyone know if competency / value based interviews can involve situational questions?
I would personally suggest asking the second firm for a direct TC interview rather than going back to the original firm because that tells them they may not be your preference/ priority while asking the second simply means you have clashing dates which is common and can't be helped!I’m sure this has been answered by @Jessica Booker so I’m sorry for asking again but I can’t find the posts!

Yes - you can decline an earlier offer - just don't expect the firm you are declining to do you any favours!I’m sure this has been answered by @Jessica Booker so I’m sorry for asking again but I can’t find the posts!

Do you think it's more likely to get a TC from a direct TC interview than from a vac scheme?
Some firms will do it earlier than making you an offer, although this only tends to be your academic referees. Typically these days it is post offer though.Do law firms contact referees before or after making a training contract offer?
What do NRF mean when they say they are "recognised for their industry focus"? Do they mean their structure is based on industries rather than practice areas?
Not necessarily notified. They would just see the updated information on the application when it was looked at.Are the recruiters notified when you update your application profile on CVmail?
It depends how you spin it...Do you think it's more likely to get a TC from a direct TC interview than from a vac scheme?
