WINTER VACATION SCHEME OFFER!!!!!!! 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳 🥳

I just got the call and I am still shaking! I did the test last Wednesday at 1:15pm (although I was on holiday in America so it was actually 8:15 am for me) and I am so surprised they responded this quickly.

I wish the best to everyone else!!!

Are they only calling successful applicants? I missed a call from them and now I've worked myself up into a state wondering whether it's acceptance or rejection? Not sure what to do

No idea. But, they are moving pretty quick because I was given less than 24 hours to accept the offer.

If it's any consolidation, I've had to decline the offer due to scheme clashes (can't believe I'm in the position to say this to a law firm 😅), so that frees up a spot hopefully to those waiting!

Wow what a fantastic position to be! Congrats, you must have worked really hard to achieve that.

 

[Robot1]

Thank you! Hopefully, my spot will now free up to those who might be on the internal 'waiting list'! (If there is one)

Is it fair to assume that those who haven't been phoned at this stage have been unsuccessful? Seems most likely.

Definitely not, it's only been a little over a week since the last few ACs.

Hi! Congrats on getting the offer! May I ask do they send an email after the phone call or is the phone call all there is? I changed my phone number and it's probably too late to update them... I did my AC on Oct 20th and it's almost two weeks 😭

I missed all of their calls because I had been getting a lot of spam calls - they will email you asking you to call them if they can't get through.

Hey thank you so much! They called me and I received the email just under 2 hours later. Like the other comment said, I'm sure they will email you if they cannot call you since they called me at 4pm and I could have been in class/ in the cinema or something and missed the call.

Anyone heard anything more today yet?

Post-AC rejection just came through. Best of luck to the rest of you and I hope those of you on the VS have a lovely time!
