Mine is still letting me apply for a direct TC, I’m in the middle of their application now

Anyone heard back from K&S after the final interview?

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.

Getting really frustrated with HFW. I’ve emailed them to ask when they expect to inform people on progress but they haven’t replied. I applied in October. Does anyone know when we will hear back from them?

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.

Still nothing, but Howard Kennedy got back to me 19th May last year so possibly another week or so
