Hey, I know exactly how you feel as starting my TC later sounds so daunting and depressing. What really helps me is setting myself clear deadlines and actually sticking to them. So for example, I will write and send off X number of apps in 2 weeks and then give myself a guilt-free break & freedom (even if it is just for a week lol). But ultimately if you’re really struggling then I think it’s important to prioritise your mental health, no matter how hard that might be. My DMs are open if you ever need a chat❤️
Anyone heard back post app from Denton yet?
what is the protocol with handshakes in in person interviews these days? haven't done an in person one before (ACs were virtual and Ive done only VIs before). if they do not initiate a handshake is it polite to do so or no longer the norm? are there any other changes post pandemic to be aware of in terms of decorum? @Jessica Booker @axelbeugre thank you!
Keep pushing champ! You got this just keep on believing in yourself!

I tend to not do them anymore - it is a real shift in the last 5 years or so, and mostly driven from the pandemic although there are various groups of people who don't do handshakes too so its become more of a consideration for those who don't. So I wouldn't worry if you are not seen to instigate one - your interviewers are more likely to do so if they feel it is appropriate and even if that is the case, if you are someone who doesn't shake hands you can explain this.
I gather from their timeline responses are 1st and 2nd, and invites for VI go out on the 2nd - so no news is good news I hope!
Are we still in the position where NO ONE has heard from Mayer Brown either way? Surely that means they’re not bothering with direct TC applicants this year?
I emailed them a week or so ago asking when they would respond to people…nothing heard yet.
Check your emails 🍾
