Is CMS WG test automatic after submitting application?
Hey, I don't think so as they sent me an email along the lines of 'congratulations, upon reading your app, we'd like to progress you to the next stage which is our WGT'
Is CMS WG test automatic after submitting application?
Has anyone got advice for applying for vac schemes whilst working full time? I graduated and work as a paralegal but I know a lot of firms predominantly hire through vac schemes, but I don’t have that much holiday with my current position and I’m worried that they’ll refuse to let me technically go try out for another job lol
Sorry to hear this. They do fill a lot of their places from their VS and I suspect even more due to COVID because its harder for firms to build trust over one virtual AC!Rejection from Sidley Austin 2022 TC :'(
Really thought I nailed my answers on this one. Did anyone hear back positively? Want to know if it's just that they filled their TC from the VS cohort or...
Anyone heard anything from Simmons post SJT test?
heya did you hear back from this? I'm in exactly the same position! i actually rang on monday 5th and they said if we are not back to you in 2 weeks follow up . but i still haven't heard back!That's a good shout, I'll drop them an email.
Has anyone here done a final round interview with Travers Smith and can offer any advice?
I'm currently filling out my undergraduate modules for Simmons & Simmons but they are asking for the 'Letter Grade' next to our 'Number Grade'. Does anyone know what this is?
I thought the same but the form would not let me proceed until I enter the letter gradesIts likely there for people who received letter grades rather than, or in addition to, number grades. My US undergraduate degree only gave me letter grades, with no percentages at all, so A's, B's, C's etc.
I’m in the same position! I just started a job as a court clerk and I’m still on probation so I know I won’t be able to take the time off I need for a winter vac scheme!!
I’m actually just going to apply to vac schemes and see if I get past the first round then deal with getting time off later. I’m planning to ask my manager at our monthly meeting if I’m actually able to do a vac scheme but it’s really hard when you only have 25 days of holiday :/ I’m also considering some direct TCs but most of my top firms hire through vac schemes so I’d prefer the VS route!
I'm also working full time (as a paralegal) and applying for vac schemes. I spoke to my manager about it and she said I could take vac schemes as unpaid leave rather than holiday - I'm not sure if everywhere would be the same or its because I do work for a genuinely very supportive team/firm because that way I wouldn't need to use up precious holiday!
Well done on getting to the WG. I haven't heard anything yetYes!
