Gowling WLG VC Application Question

[LegalLordLox]

I think you've misread. She said she received the VI invite on Tuesday, not that she completed the VI on Tuesday and then got an AC offer. If you re-read the thread you'll see what she meant!

Fair point my bad.

I would assume that GR would assess candidates later this week following the deadline so we should hear back within the next few weeks, especially as they have to set up ACs in time for their Spring Vac Scheme in April!

I applied to London.

I have talked to a current future trainee and they said that GR got back to her the day after she submitted her VI. Hopefully, it will be quick (possibly tomorrow) and wish all of you the best of luck.

interesting, good to know thank you! Hopefully we hear back this week. This is my first year applying, would be great to get through to AC.

I anticipate the AC to closely follow? End of the month?

Anyone applied for Norton Rose?

Omg wow

I have no idea, I have heard from numerous firms that the number of applications this year is much larger than normal, which means it might take longer for each stage of the process. Anyone on here who gets a response please let us know!

Anyone heard back from Gowling?

Not yet sigh. Just waiting in suspense

Nothing yet, let’s hope for some news by the end of the week...

Good luck everyone! We’ve done well to get this far.

No response yet

 

[hopefullawyer123]

No response yet either

 

[Afrin Nanavatti]

The suspense is killing me

Does anyone have any idea when we'll hear back? The fact that there wasn't a confirmation email when the VI was submitted is throwing me off

I have no idea when we’ll hear back. As for the confirmation email, no one from this thread seems to have received one either. So hopefully that is not an issue!

Keep your mind occupied guys. Find a new book to read. Look into a commercial law related topic or maybe if you aren’t already start applying to other firms!

For me I work during the day so it allows me to focus on work, and assignments that are due! I am sure as soon as someone hears they will post the response they received!

Once again good luck everyone!

Thanks Sanj!

Honestly guys, I am all with u on this! The suspense is killing me as well we should have AT LEAST received a confirmation email. I'm finding myself constantly checking my inbox every half n hour... I don't think it's healthy at all..

I do agree with you @Sanj K ..we should keep ourselves busy and not worry about it for the time being. All the best everyone..we've come this far so we've got this

I know what it feels like to constantly refresh your email! Ahh. However, what’s helped me is downloading the separate gmail/hotmail app on my phone. I’m notified as soon I receive an email, which prevents me refreshing it 10x a day. Hope that helps!

Good luck all!
