Are 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.

Congratulations! I just wanted to ask, when did you complete the WG?
I completed the Linklaters WG in mid-November, would it reflect poorly if I enquire about my score now?
Nope I asked and have made it through to the AC so hasn’t hurt me so far at least..
I would do it by the end of today, just to be safe. I’ve always interpreted as the latter.
Hi! You can’t edit or highlight the document. Nor can you copy words from the document to your written exercise text box or elsewhere.
Hope that helps!
Congratulations on the AC.
If you dont mind me asking then when was your AC, which scheme did you apply for and what was your WG percentile.
From what i can remember i believe there is a notes section where you can make your notes but i personally found it more of a hassle tohaving to keep changing tabs so maybe just have a pen and paper with you? Good luck!!
This is so nice of you thank you! So many helpful ideas too, I really appreciate the help.It's always lovely to hear from candidates straight away and shows how keen they are... but once you're on the scheme, no one remembers if you accept on the first or last day of the offer! That's just my opinion thoughWhen we've recruited in my non-law company, some of the best interns have been those that took their time considering the offer before accepting
WOW I mean DUH why are you not SHOUTING ABOUT THIS?! Amazing experience!!!!! it shows so much resilience and strength, the initiative to run a successful business, commercial awareness in terms of dealing with marketing, finance, strategy... use this to your advantage! This is far more relevant than any extracurriculars in my opinion and I wish I was entrepreneurial enough to start my own business! Maybe try to think about what your business may require from a law firm? What about if it was a franchise? How can you show that this work attracts you to becoming a commercial solicitor?
Is anyone still waiting to hear from Addleshaw Goddard?
Great news, I got my invite yesterday as well! Very excited 😁Mills & Reeve AC invite!! My first ever!!!
Yes. I actually think it's my best application, which probably means that it'll be a PFO. 😆
I am - I applied for Manchester. From what I can gather, most people on the forum who heard back applied for the London office.
Say it isn't so! I think the mantra goes 'no news is good news'Yes. I actually think it's my best application, which probably means that it'll be a PFO. 😆
Well I have seen a couple of people from other offices (e.g. Leeds, Scotland) but I haven't seen anybody who applied to Manchester say they have been contacted yet.
To people with Kirkland ACs: Has Grad Rec sent you to the additional information they said they were going to send this week yet?
