Still waiting on white & Case, Weil & Sidley Austin. All applied around a similar time with Weil & Sidley both between dec 3-8 and White & Case 16th. Should I assume a rejection cause it’s pretty long now haha

I'm waiting on Weil and White & Case too. I know they get back to people at different times - all I can say is no news is good news.

Just did a VI where I completely froze for about 5 seconds and then panicked and said six-seat instead of seat structure!

Has anyone ever had any success where the VI has been a complete car crash? I really liked the firm too and but I just feel like I messed up so bad.

Hopefully one or two mistakes won't make a difference. I once did two VIs back to back. The first I had prepared a lot before and my answers sounded rehearsed, the second I did less preparation and sounded a lot more natural (despite hesitating more, answers less structured). I got the second and rejected from the first. So hopefully if you still said some good things, showed a bit of your personality, you should still have a chance!
