2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion

I would LOVE to see this too if it were possible!

Second this @Daniel Boden. When you have time 🙏

 

[MJ90]

Thanks for the feedback! I applied on Tuesday and just got a VI, wondering if it’s automatic?

They’re definitely not automatic, you must have had a good app!

 

[Tara Allen]

Same - feeling slightly less cheesed off about that Gowling Rejection now...

Exactly the same as me, Gowling rejection followed by PwC interview. At least the day ended well 😅

 

[Lumree]

Kinda concerned as I should be getting this as I am on a fast track application... anyone else in the same position?

I imagine they have a lot to send out so they could be doing them in batches. Try not to speculate (I’m telling myself the same)

 

[Daniel Boden]

My word was not expecting that many DMs and responses to my WG hint sheet offer 😂 😂

I'll make a thread so everyone can access it haha 👍

You're welcome. Bloody hell I hope you're coping well with the lockdowns in a new country!

Literally clicked off TCLA for a moment and came across this, absolutely awful coincidence - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-55854459

Fucking hell that's horrible! I swear it wasn't me lol.

Thanks for the good wishes! Not gonna lie it's been tough but I'm trying to follow the what doesn't kill you make you stronger approach haha

 

[Athina]

Pwc vi !

SAME!! Do you have any idea what the vi involves? There doesn't seem to be much info and I have heard conflicting things.

A bit of info for people waiting on FF Vac Scheme pre and post WG - i did the WG in November of last year (not sure why i was sent it that early) and still have heard nothing so I emailed asking for an update today and this was their reply:

"We are still reviewing all applications and you should receive an update by the end of February with regards to your application"

 

[Abgaal]

It’s been 7 months and I still haven’t heard back from White and Case TC. I applied back in June 2020 lol. I did my video interview in October... I am getting tired of waiting lol

My god, this is appalling. Poor people. Glad the police have apprehended the perpetrator.

Hi has anyone applied to Reed Smith. I submitted the research application questions after getting through online application and judgement test. But haven’t heard anything since emailing my research questions on 12th January. I know it isn’t that long ago but want to see if anyone has heard back yet

Hi! I submitted on 16 Jan and received an email on 26 Jan stating they are still in the process of reviewing my answers. Good luck

White and Case White and Case invite !!

It might be worth it to send them an e-mail if it has been so incredibly long!

 

[ishikam]

White and Case White and Case invite !!

Congratulations!! Is this for the VS or the TC and when did you apply?

 

[Kopperskjold]

Very basic question but when you do get invites - do they call you or do they send you an email?

 

[leolegal]

Congrats everyone on PwC VI invite! I guess I didn't do well on that game 😂

 

[Abgaal]

I have emailed them in November and I have also emailed them a week ago. I am tired man 😭
