Even though interviews supposedly start this week or maybe next...Still nothing from Slaughters?
Slaughters emailed me a couple of weeks ago saying they’ve withdrawn my application as this cycle is for law graduates only, and advised me to apply again in September for 2027/2028 intake 😭Still nothing from Slaughters?
I am as I haven’t heard anything post app and I applied back in May…Hi, are we assuming PFO for Dentons if we haven't received the test?
Most firms will offer permanent contracts to NQs, but fixed term contracts are still used especially when the department is going under change. For instance, I have seen firm offer FTCs when they have people on maternity/paternity leave or on sabbaticals/secondments but are due to come back, or when they are waiting for a new partner to join the department.just had a question about NQs - do firms generally take on NQs on a fixed contract or is it always a permanent contract.

Linklaters retention drops again to 78 per cent

When did you hear back from them?I wouldn’t assume a PFO as I got a Pfo a while back already. I think they might have already sent out rejections and the test may come in batches.
I ain’t had it yetHas anyone given the Dentons online assessment yet?
Got a pfo on fridayHave people received any updates re Mayer Brown TC? saw a few PFOs unfortunately, but I’ve not got anything..
What firm are you completing a WG for btw?Does anyone perform really well on WG tests? I would like some tips on some sections I get stuck on. I'll buy you a coffee/lunch, I need to get that darn test right
I emailed them in May about it and they said they would have both 2025/2026 TCs - was quite surprised when they didn’t open them.Did Weil even open for direct TC this year or not?
