Has anyone received a test invitation for Baker McKenzie's direct Training Contract?

last year they took their sweet time with rolling out test invites. I think I received mine at the end of April...

They rejected me after 6 days

i got rejected a couple of weeks back so that definitely means they're screening apps. good luck to you as i feel no news is good news

You say that but I applied for their direct TC position which opened during summer 2023 and never received an application outcome

I would chase that tbh. That's just lazy on their part.

Is NRF test for TC automatic

Probably based on the quick turnaround. I submitted mine on Friday

Oh I thought that ACs were usually in May? That would be quite fast turnarounds between test and VI and VI and AC in that case

 

[give.me.a.tc]

Who has any tips on passing the NRF Arctic shores test?

 

[Untilwinter]

Anyone heard back from Fried Frank?

 

[desperateTCseeker1998]

Anyone heard back from Fried Frank?

I thought they were non-rolling and close in June?

 

[Happycloud100]

Does anyone know if Cleary will open direct TC this year again? And if anyone got hired off of direct TC for Cleary last year

ACs were in late may/early june

 

[Marios Z]

Does anyone know if you have to do the Artic Shores test again if you passed it before?

 

[LegalLordLox]

Just received my feedback report from Shoosmiths SBA. Has anyone else?

A very random question - do you think some firms have preference over specific MBTI personality type(s)?
