Yes - you can request it. If they have reasonable reasons to do so, they can decline the request though.
Hogan Lovells rejection post WG - does anyone know if they give the WG to everyone automatically or do they review apps before?
Also how long do they usually take to get back to you if I email them about my WG test score?

Trying to find a plain background in my house for a video interview like...
I have a question that is not intended to start a controversy, I am just curious. What do you think the opinions would be of working for a law firm that is representing Trump, given the press around it recently. Would this hurt my career in the long term and what are the chances of the firms reputation dropping significantly? I am a bit worried about job Security/reputation.
Is this morgan lewis? I think look at how much the parters donated to each party and you’ll get a vibe, but I assume over 50% of partners at least will be pro Trump...
No I have seen lots of articles about Jones Day however also articles saying they are not representing him any longer?
Tbf I don’t know much about Jones Day in the UK but they have been through quite a bit in the US (gender discrimination lawsuit etc). Regarding reputation, if Kirkland can get away with representing Jeffrey Epstein and still be successful I think Jones Day won’t rlly be affected by this.
Jones day released a statement about this on their LinkedIn page a while ago so I’d see if you can find that. From what I know they represent the Republican Party and not trump himself? That may have changed or have been different in the past but that was what I got from what they had said
Nope....did my VI a couple of days ago and it went so bad 😭
Though I really thought I will hear back by the end of today.....
I highly doubt you would experience any career damage working for a firm which represented Trump - if some place judged you negatively for this, it would speak volumes about them to be honest! Notwithstanding you being implicated in some form of legal wrongdoing as a result of such representation, I see no reason why it would be an issue; in that event, it would be a challenge irrespective of the firm or client anyway so it's a moot point.
Gosh, I've been invited to the assessment centre for Pinsent Masons! This is my third thus far this cycle - last year I barely made it past the application stage.
Any advice from those who have previously done their AC would be massively welcomed!

Just received a White & Case VI invite. This is my first application cycle, so does anyone have any useful tips for White & Case VIs, and video interviews more generally?
Congratulations and the best of luck!!! Could I be that person and ask when you applied? Still waiting to hear back for me...
Thank you so much! I applied at around 11pm on the day of the deadline (I put Spring vac scheme as my preference. I hope you hear from them soon!
