@Jaysen I just received the below email from Reed Smith, please can you let me know if you think it would be appropriate for me to email GR and confirm that I want to continue with my application?

"We would like to thank you for taking the time to complete your application for the summer vacation scheme at Reed Smith.

We have received an unprecedented number of applications and as this scheme was primarily aimed at undergraduates, we will be withdrawing your application on the basis that the earliest training contract opportunity we have available will be to start in 2023.

We appreciate that all circumstances are different and so if you still wish to continue with your application then please feel free to email us at [email protected]"

Thanks

From the email, I’m pretty sure it’d be appropriate to email grad rec that you’d still like to be considered
