Hahaha thank you! I would change it, but I think it's an accurate depiction of the TC struggles bc, let's be honest, no one smiles whilst trying to get a TC 🙃

Did anyone get a chance to ask OC when they could expect to hear back?

 

[tractor12]

Still nothing from Trowers...thought my application was quite decent as well, nevermind!

I emailed HR this morning but haven't received a response back!

I just wondered whether anyone else was in a similar position to me for the CMS Academy programme...
I was offered a place on the Academy and I was just giving my contract a final read-through before sending it off and saw the words 'You will be invited to a virtual Open Day, due to take place on Wednesday 14 April 2021.' I assumed that this would be optional (given an invitation can usually be declined) and because it was called an open day. I am unable to make this date as I have already accepted a place on a different firm's Easter scheme. I rang grad recruitment just to double-check and they said that if I can't make the day, I must withdraw my application.
This was a huge shock to me as they didn't mention it at any point during the recruitment cycle and by blocking out that time in Easter as well as 3 weeks over the Summer, it really requires candidates to put all their eggs in one basket with CMS. I can understand why they do this, but it seems pretty unfair to me and I am devastated that I will have to forfeit my place after being made an offer because of a single open day. If anyone else has been caught out by this, I would love to hear from you 😢😢😢

Is the open day a full day? Or is it just a couple of hours?

Has anyone applied for AS diversity scheme for the London office and not heard back after completing stage 2??

I haven’t heard back but I saw like two people on here say they were asked to submit their CVs.

And someone was invited to an interview

I am fully braced for Trowers to round out my week with a juicy pfo tomorrow

 

[letsee]

What sort of mind games are W&C and Travers playing 🤣 . If you dont want me, reject me bro

 

[LegalLily]

I wanna know what Gibson is playing at 😂. Think they’ve become the new Travers with the way they are sporadically replying to apps
