Is anyone still waiting on DLA Piper? I heard they’ve completed their ACs, which can’t be right surely?
Also still waiting!

I'm waiting for 5 applications I submitted between end of December and 15th January. Given that firms would get an influx of applications towards the deadline, when do you guys think it is realistic to start receiving responses? Did anyone experience this in previous cycles?

I never experienced this year last year. It’s so odd!

Just read over my Shearman application and realised that I selected that one of my non-legal work experiences was "law related". I know that grad rec is pretty strict, but is that a definite rejection do you reckon ?
