Anyone waiting to hear back from Bird & Bird post-VI? I know they did one round of ACs earlier in late Jan but I was invited to do the VI in early Feb. The rolling recruitment is creating some backlog I guess?
I completed a linklaters forage virtual internship. For me I don’t think it boosted my app chances because I did not include it in my apps i or on LinkedIn, but it has helped me to understand the m&a process more and the type of tasks that trainees do. It’s also helped me with case study practice.Will completing the Forage virtual internships help boost application chances?
If anyone has any notes to this, I would also greatly appreciate it! Missed it cause of workDid anyone attend Vantage’s webinar yesterday on Direct TC Q&A Panel with Ashurst and Baker McKenzie? Please could you share your notes if you did? Tysm!
You should receive the link couple days later!If anyone has done the Baker McKenzie direct appo, do you receive the test link immediately after submitting the application?
It's been a good week now. :O Should I follow up or is that an automatic reject?You should receive the link couple days later!
Isn't the Watson Glaser test for Bakers the next stage of the process?You should receive the link couple days later!
Yesss!!!! And then a video interview!!Isn't the Watson Glaser test for Bakers the next stage of the process?
You mean the WG test? When did you hear back? I submitted my application back in February and i am yet to receive any link.You should receive the link couple days later!
Yes the WG link! Oh I haven’t received any test link yet either. I just responded according to what my friend told me, she received a summer VS offer at Bakers! And her wait time between app and test link was one week.You mean the WG test? When did you hear back? I submitted my application back in February and i am yet to receive any link.
They will just assess people and then decide whether to offer someone or not. There are a whole host of reasons why someone would hear back quicker than you, and that isn’t just down to them being successful and you possibly not.Hi @Jessica Booker do you know how freshfields make their training contract decisions? I haven’t heard back but I know some people who have done the AC more recently have gotten an offer.
do they operate on a rolling basis? And then reject everyone at once after?
Ah I see, I was told by someone in the forum last month that usually BM sends the link after the deadline. So most likely we ll get it in April. Thanks for the clarification.Yes the WG link! Oh I haven’t received any test link yet either. I just responded according to what my friend told me, she received a summer VS offer at Bakers! And her wait time between app and test link was one week.
But I’m not sure - because this is a direct TC app, so I think we may receive it in April?
