I submitted the application the day of the deadline
.
On a side note, the only available interview slot is the 23rd of January. This is quite short notice, especially since I study in Dublin and will have to sort out flights and accommodation.

Is it fair to ask if it is possible to interview on a later date, or do I just take it ?

As someone who's had a similar problem - ask them, but prepare to do it the 23rd anyway.

    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 ?

    Can you believe I made the same mistake as well HAHA. I feel you buddy. Congrats on the interview tho!
