I messaged them before they deleted, and they confirmed they got an offer for the DTC on Friday morning.
For anyone who applied to Greenberg Traurig and has not had a reply yet, does your candidate submission status also still say 'in progress'?
My million dollar question!
Do you know if this was straight after the AC? I thought there was supposed to be another partner interview between the AC and formal offer?
Just curious because I have my AC on Thursday. I was just assuming that even if it went well i would still have at least one more round before getting an offer!
@bellini tagging you because I saw your post upthread and wondered if you had any insights?
If I remember correctly, the mentioned person had their AC on 13th February and received the offer last Friday. If you have applied for the DTC, the AC is the final stage before the offer.
Do you have the DTC AC with Freshfields on Thursday this week?
Sorry I’m such a muppet. Someone was talking about Fieldfisher upthread and I got my FF’s confused.
Apologies.
A question about a few firms - when did people hear last year?
From Hogan Lovells post-Watson Glaser test; from King & Spalding post-application; from Fried Frank after applying there; after applying to Paul Hastings TC; from White & Case post-TC app?
Thank you so much in advance.

Nothing like getting off a 14 hour flight with no WiFi to see I got the HD test invite!!! Tbh wasn’t expecting to hear for a while so great start to the holiday!!
To my knowledge the latter 3 (Fried Frank, Paul Hastings and White & Case) are all non-rolling, and their deadlines are between May-July, so I think they would only start getting back to everyone that applied from June/July onwards. 🙂
I submitted at roughly 1am and got confirmation at around 5pm
It's happened to me a few times with some non-US/MC/SC firms this cycle (e.g. Addleshaws and Dentons) where I worked really hard on the application and didn't even get to a VI stage. I really was interested in these firms too. On the other hand, with US/MC/SC firms this cycle, I've not received a single post-app PFO (i.e. I always made it to the next selective stage, whether that's a VI or telephone interview, or AC). I am starting to think firms are making judgements based on whether they think I'd accept a TC with them sometimes? Like how do I convince them?? I promise I would????
Edit: Just to note, Addleshaws had a non-selective test so it's entirely possible that I failed that

Also interested as I received it and it says you’ve passed to the next stage of the process but I got the email a day after I applied which makes me doubt that they actually read it so quickly
This was also 19 days ago and haven’t heard back since
Their website says: If you are successful following the application stage, you will be invited to complete an online strengths based assessment. But someone on this forum said it is automatic.
Hello, I just received a PFO from Latham for the open day? I applied for spring vac scheme? So confused and demoralised, this application cycle destroyed me 💀
