Has anyone heard back from Linklaters re direct TC applications?

I can't seem to find the University of Law thread but does anyone have any tips on their scholarship interview assessment.

Hi, sorry if this has already been asked! When previewing my application on the final page of the Baker McKenzie cvmail 'preview' page, all my paragraphs look fine. However, when I download my application to my PC and open the file, there are no gaps between each paragraph. When it says 'press enter' for a new paragraph, should I be pressing that twice? Thanks

I applied on the day applications opened and received a ‘your application is under review’ email today.

Hi - I applied last year. I got through to the final round and was never notified of the outcome despite being told I had passed the MCQ test...hopefully you'll have a better experience!

I applied last year and received a scholarship so I'm happy to help if I can! What part of the scholarship assessment do you mean?

Thank you both. I just completed my scholarship assessment but ran out of time. Could you please clarify if they would have received it?

If you ran out of time they would still have received your test result.

Thank you for clarifying Jessica

It is written St James’s Park (which is grammatically correct). For me Jess’ and Jess’s are both grammatically correct - it’s just a preference thing.

whatever way you go, do it consistently. Although as I said, my advice is to restructure the sentence so you don’t have to use the apostrophe at all or change it to “firm’s”

Got it, thank you!

 

[Velikilawyer123]

I think we are talking about different events

Ah, makes sense. So which one are you attending?

Have you heard whether they are still recruiting for direct TC?

Basically i had to fill an application, made it to the VI stage and passed. The event will be held on the 25th.

I believe they are, they have their direct TC apps open??

 

[D95]

To those who have applied to Ince - have you heard back from them yet?

No nothing yet, also didn't receive a confirmation email either.

I'd suggest you follow up with them just in case, because they acknowledged the receipt of my application the day after I sent it.

Hi Jessica, the assessment I did yesterday was an incorrect one. They re-sent me another assessment which was a lot different than the previous one and had an attachment I couldn't open for 5 mins. Is it worth emailing them?
