[S87]

Has anyone heard back from DLA piper post WG? And if it so, how long after?

 

[dosblancos7]

Huge congrats! May I ask when you had your telephone interview?

Last week of october I think!

 

[Ooshmate]

Has anyone heard anything on the Linklaters Winter Vac Scheme post-WG test?

 

[dosblancos7]

I have an AC with NRF soon! If anyone has any experience with the firm, or has done their VS(or even interviewed/AC'd there), I would be immensely grateful for any pointers

[Jony]

Does it say on hold? My spring one(for last year) says app unsuccessful, but the WVS says on hold.

I did apply quite late so not too sure- sorry to hear that!

 

[DrowninginSQE]

Me too for winter but it clashes with another vac scheme so I don't mind...

Links portal says unsuccessful too. I really thought I stood a chance as I scored in the 90 percentile on WG but guess not :/

 

[KamTM]

has anyone done the written test/VI for simmons and simmons? would really love some help and advice!

I did the VI last cycle. Unfortunately was unsuccessful, but happy to provide an insight on the format if that would help.

Ahurst have another set of ACs next week. At my AC the other day they said everyone at the ACs would hear back by the 23rd.

Pfo from Links winter vac and BLM 2022 TC app in the same day. I just love the feeling of rejection on a Thursday The BLM rejection only took 7 months but I think of all the applications, Links feels the most impossible, really felt I did well on the tests this year!

Hi, to anyone who have applied to Willkie Farr, I’m wondering if you have received an email confirming receipt of your application after submitting the application form? I applied a few days ago and haven’t received anything yet so I’m a bit worried.

No, they don’t send out confirmation emails. When you submit your app, a little notice box pops up and says that they have received it and you won’t receive a confirmation email.

They also aim to get back to you within 10 days – nice to have an end in sight!
