No but hoping I do sometime soon considering the time it took to write their app that was basically as long as my summative essays ffs
lol - it was long. Weird because theirs is rolling so some people have already been on AC with them...hoping we hear soooon!
Does anyone know if I should fill in open days etc separately in the Hogan Lovells application form (e.g. new entry for each open day) or put them all down in a single entry?
Single entry. If you have one at HL then maybe go beyond just writing the open day and the date and say what you learned (not what you did on the day!!)
I don't actually know this for sure, but I have heard of a few people who confirmed vac schemes and then actually ended up not attending. if you get other offers and you'd rather go elsewhere then you can, practically speaking, do so. but obviously take into consideration the fact that it will reflect a bit negatively on you.
having said this, I did the DLA vac scheme a few years ago and it was actually very fun/well organised etc.. so if I were you id just try to shuffle your other offers around and actually do DLA

You could although it doesn’t look amazing to the firm. But obviously does happen, especially when applying for vac scheme and TCs at the same time because you can’t do a vac scheme after accepting a TC. I’d say just accept and then choose your favourite if you end up getting offers from elsewhere but also consider how likely the others will be to convert to a TC from the vac scheme
Same! Feel like I put more effort into that than my dissertation
I did the VI for the London vac scheme and haven't heard anything yet. Grad recruitment said they would be making decisions at the end of last week but it appears it's taking a while to communicate them to us...

"Eligible candidates will need to be in the first year (or second year of a four-year course) of a law degree, or the second year of a non-law degree”
What about 3rd year of a 4 year non-law course, would that count?! Someone help!

I would take that to mean penultimate year of a non-law course so you should be fine. Maybe ring to check before committing to an app just to be sure though?"Eligible candidates will need to be in the first year (or second year of a four-year course) of a law degree, or the second year of a non-law degree”

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has heard back from Reed Smith after submitting the research questions for the Summer VS? thanks!
