Anyone waiting for Osborne Clarke, they just emailed me to say that due to the volume of applications they will be responding in the next 2 weeks!

Still waiting on CMS. I completed the VI on 19th Jan. Not very hopeful at this point

Same here, did the VI on the 22nd.

Hi all, does anyone know how long it takes Weil to respond post-VI?

Me too! Unfortunately don't think they are reading them anymore

On apply4law there is an option to leave a note

Then you can email the firm to let them know, but they might not be able to remember that detail or add it to your application

Can I just say how much I LOVE this forum just because we can all see how far we've come since September?!

Seeing everyone's posts (like you @Ricky and @Celestie, and everyone else!) from the early stage panicking to the onslaught of rejections and offers to ... just seeing people come through the process with little successes

I feel like I know most of you guys here just from reading about you wanting to pick yourself back up or whether you've got an AC. The little things!

Keep going everyone ❤️ when this crazy year is all over, I'll be in London. Who wouldn't want a pint with some of you at a small pub overlooking the Thames?

God, what I wouldn't give to be getting drunk in a beer garden in the summer sunshine right now...

Nothing from Cooley yet but they are non-rolling so might take a while!

Anyone heard from ropes & gray or cooley yet?

Nope. Are ropes & gray rolling?

I went to a talk with them this cycle and they said they were non-rolling, for summer VS at least

HSF rejection applied on the deadline. Quite sad about this one but at least I can stop thinking about it now

Any word from Osborne Clarke ? they say on their website that interviews/ AC's will be at the beginning of feb but I haven't heard a peep

They said in an email today that it will be within next two weeks!

Definitely should organise some TCLA drinks as soon as possible!

Anyone still waiting to hear on WFW post video interview?

 

[Barnsworth]

[Staples]

Hey has anyone else here got the Osborne Clarke email that they'll be considering applications for two further weeks? And has anyone heard anything different?

Getting that email notification from them had me like:

 

[MJ90]

Got invited to 1st Stage interview for Mofo! Any tips would be hugely appreciated, especially in relation to the technical questions they can ask.

Congrats! When did you apply and how did they let you know? They officially had the worst online form system and I didn’t ever receive a confirmation email. 😕
