I do not want to knock any firm, but I made it on to Paul Hasting's insight day and then did the vac scheme application back in 2020. Never heard back from graduate recruitment whatsoever.Anyone applied to the Paul Hastings insight day/heard back?
Hi there,@Jake Rickman. "Edit: Forgot to add that TCLA published last week a premium article that looks at the way you can approach "primary sources" like investor circulars and company accounts to boost your commercial awareness." My apologies Jake I am interested in the article, but I can't seem to find it. Is it included in the premium newsletter? Thank you!
I don’t think there should be overlap. Work experience should be the jobs you have been paid or volunteered to do. Positions of responsibility should be extracurricular activities.I'm in the process of completing the Eversheds Sutherland TC application. The application form has a question asking candidates to detail all positions of responsibility in 500 words, and also has a separate 'work experience' section.
Should there be overlap between the two? And if not, what is the difference between 'positions of responsibility' (i.e. a volunteering role) vs work experience? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated as I am rather stuck on this! Thanks
Hi! Unrelated to the query that you posted - but I think Eversheds has (for the past two years) filled their TC spots entirely from the Vac Scheme candidates. I remember candidates receiving communication from the firm last year about how there aren't any TC spots left. Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong, but it might be worthwhile to get in touch with the firm or confirm this!I'm in the process of completing the Eversheds Sutherland TC application.

Font size 10 is ok but make sure the cover letter is not just squished all together. The combinations of font size 10, narrow margins, narrow line spacing or long paragraphs is not going to make your cover letter easy or appealing to read.Hi guys, I am currently making a app for slaughter and may. I have two questions I want to ask and would be grateful if someone here can please guide me to the right direction. Firstly, will the grad team accept a cover letter and cv with 10 font size. Further to this, does the firm still have a lockstep model?
This is so helpful thank you! Makes sense not to waste much time on the application if this is the case!Hi!

I agree with this. I received a email from the last cycle that they ran out of spaces as they covered them all from the vcsThis is so helpful thank you! Makes sense not to waste much time on the application if this is the case!
Wish they would just let us know. Even if there are more offers on its way, the majority is going to be PFO and it would save people a lot of energyAny bakers PFO? Seems to have gone quiet
I reckon theyve waitlisted quite a few people and will reconsider when they see how the vac schemers get on. An acquaintance at Bakers said she found out 6 weeks after her AC that she got it so I’m clinging to whatever little hope I have lolDo you reckon more offers are on the way? I just assumed it’s an inevitable PFO
