Ahh right! I think the Manchester one is closed because that wasn’t an option for me to apply to, but the London one is still there to apply to
Yeah I've managed to get London working now - strange as they advertised Manchester as non-rolling and only reviewed after the 31/05 too

Hi @Jessica Booker i was wondering if I should mention starting up my own business in my CV work experience section but I’m worried it’s not relevant/ will make my CV 2 pages long in comparison to my other legal-focused work experience. I’d be grateful for any advice on this.

You should definitely include it.

CVs can be two pages long.

You can always put it into a serrated section so you have your legal work experience in one section and your other work experience in another.

    Has anyone emailed Ashurst about whether there will be more ACs coming out/if applications are still in the process of being reviewed? I am hesitant to because I have already had to contact them about glitches with my test so do not want to be annoying
    Would love to know but may as well just wait and see. They stated that they'll aim to get back to everyone by May 24th. Personally I think PFO is likely :(

    I haven't, would be curious to know what they would say though! If you do choose to contact them, please let me know.
