Can I ask when you completed the test? I haven't received anything yet.Got the Mayer Brown feedback pack from their test just now.
it appears they send them out about 48h after completingCan I ask when you completed the test? I haven't received anything yet.
When did you receive invite if you don’t mind me asking? I still haven’t heard anything, wondering if that is just a PFO..Any Bristows written exercise advice?
Hi, congratulations on the TC offer! Can I just ask if your Kirkland AC was for DTC or a VS?Hi! I have received a TC offer but have been waiting to hear back after a Kirkland AC last Monday. Is it worth asking for an expedited decision or could this have a negative impact on the AC outcome?
Thank you! It was for VS - but I saw that someone on the VS forum received a direct training contract offer so I don’t know whether there will be a VS at all.Hi, congratulations on the TC offer! Can I just ask if your Kirkland AC was for DTC or a VS?
As it has been 8 working days since your AC, I would ask as to when you will hear back so you can manage a conversation with your existing offer.Hi!

I need some advice.
I am an EU national but have a British partner with whom I live in the EU (my boyfriend is from England). I have a very strong CV, multiple years of legal experience, a lot of transactional work, good uni grades, very strong extra curriculars (founded two of the larger student clubs in my uni) and have an LLB and an LLM. I still somehow can’t get past the application stage. I have tweaked, peer reviewed, refined, you name it, but nothing.
This leads me to think that the visa could be the main issue? SO my question is, most law firms ask whether I have the right to work in the UK without restriction, which I currently don’t. My partner is able to sponsor me through the partner visa, if I say yes to the Q, that’s technically not true as we’d only apply for the partner visa and initiate the move to the UK contingent on me getting a TC offer. But if I say no the Q, then oftentimes I have no way of letting them know I could go the route of them not sponsoring me. What would you do?
Got rejected following test this morning so not going to give any advice on how - as to what, it's quite a bizarre test, clicking buttons based on instinctive answers about your working style / firm culture etc.Has anyone done field fishers assessment - any advice what is it
I would make clear in your application form that you would apply for a spousal visa.I need some advice.
