Erm I'm pretty sure that not posting your VS offer on LinkedIn is illegal.

I personally didnt make a post lol

I've got an AC with Penningtons Manches Cooper next week. I received an AC invite from them last week. I applied on the 21st October. Hopefully you'll hear back soon!

Hi there,

I have an AC with PMC next week and was just wondering whether you could offer any advice on what to expect? Let me know if I can be of any help with other firms!

For anyone’s that’s completed/ due to complete the White & Case AC - when do they issue the webex link invite? I’m slightly concerned as my interview is tomorrow at 11:45, and haven’t received any access details. (I just emailed the grad recruitment team, and tried phoning but no pick up as it’s after 5:30)

Finally got my Shearman PFO post interview. Big ouch.

 

[Jessica Booker]

In the same vein, would posting a vac scheme offer/acceptance look bad when you're still in the interview/AC process for vac schemes at other firms?

No....

Well unless you definitely cannot do the dates of the 2nd vacation scheme where you are already committed to the first.

Winston and Strawn PFO.

In the email they said "We would like to assure you that your application was very strong." Is this their standard PFO?

just got the same email so probably

Not 100% certain as mine is on Thursday, but I'm pretty sure they said all the details will be given on the day of your interview, so you'll receive it tomorrow

Anyone heard back from L&W post-VI?

 

[CJCH]

Has anyone else had confirmation of vacation scheme dates with TLT?

I have just started a new job and I am worried about booking annual leave. I have emailed TLT a couple of times (late last week and early today) and have had no response. I am a bit concerned as one of the proposed dates was the end of March and I need to give my line manager as much notice to book time off as possible.

I heard that the tentative dates are in the week of 22 March for Spring and 28 June for Summer.

 

[Crastle]

anybody who has got a final mishcon interview been told when their interview will be?

 

[pbyrne]

PFO from Winston & Strawn

 

[Staples]

Has anyone NOT heard at all from Penningtons? I applied in early December and have heard absolutely zilch - kind of assuming PFO at this point but... I like having closure

Not got anything from them yet.

Hi guys, i have a VS interview with HR partner soon... in terms of the classic "do you have any questions" would you advise me to not ask law-specific questions as the interviewer is not a firm partner? Does this make sense?

 

[gricole]

PFO from Winston Strawn not a single interview this cycle yet.

 

[CorporateB3]

Hey guys, anyone know how long after competing a VI with Bakers until they get back to you?

I completed it two days ago and I just logged onto CVMail and see they’ve ‘reviewed’ my VI but heard nothing yet.

Hi! Wanted to know if you heard yet as I submitted my VI on the 2nd but haven't heard anything though I saw that it has been reviewed.

Not got anything from them yet.

No news is good news my friend.
