Hi there! I completely understand your frustration - there's only so much that you can do to prepare for WG/SJTs tests. Last year I also exhausted most of the online preparation resources for these tests and my results were still inconsistent. With some firms I was scoring well into the 90h percentile, with others I was straight up rejected for not meeting the benchmark.Bit of a useless rant but idk how I’ve completed my LLB, passed the SQE and my LLM but am still being brutalized by the Watson Glaser and SJT’s??? This is even after paying for practice tests and getting about 80-90% on them😭😭 I actually don’t know what to do anymore
Hi there! I would definitely reach out if I were you. The only times I have heard of incorrect information in the application form becoming a serious issue during pre-employment checks was either when (a) there was a very significant discrepancy between the truth and the information on the form, or when (b) the person in question was suspected of dishonesty. Since there is no serious discrepancy in your case, the only thing you should be concerned about is seeming dishonest. By reaching out before screening, you provide the graduate recruitment team with convincing evidence that this was in fact an innocent error on your part. It is extremely unlikely any firm would choose to terminate your contract for that reason.Hello forum, I have a question re pre-employment screening. On my application, I mistakenly inputted an incorrect GCSE grade (I put it as an A rather than B for Religious Studies) as I was doing it from memory. I now have a statement of results from my secondary school. Furthermore, having looked at my application, I can't seem to locate my A-level grades, only my AS-levels. I always, always include my A-level grades so am unsure if it is a glitch or I overlooked it whilst completing my application. In any case, I'm certain that apps will not let you progress unless you've included A-levels so it is a bit bizarre. The firm does not have any minimum A-level requirements and I have nothing to conceal as I have mitigating circumstances. Should I reach out to graduate recruitment before screening takes place? I am worried about potential repercussions although I was not purposely dishonest in my application.
I completely agree with you that posting about the bad news is as valuable as posting about the success stories. When I was facing straight rejections in all my applications in my first cycle, one of the most disheartening experiences was perceiving myself as uniquely unworthy, as I was seeing every day so many other people post about their success on platforms like LinkedIn. After I discovered this forum and seeing how many other people were facing the same struggles as I was, getting over my rejections started hurting me less and I found renewed strength to keep pushing forward.It's been great to see all the TC offers people have posted about in the last month (which I am very happy for!) but equally I think transparency when it's bad news is also important.
Was waiting on a firm for the last month since doing the AC in late August, heard back today and got rejected. Got to 2 final AC's this cycle and rejections from both. 1 vac scheme at a US firm the cycle before (didn't convert) and 1 vac scheme at an international equivalent to MC the cycle year (also didn't convert).
Academic background: 2.1 humanities BA and MA from a London RG.
Going into the 4th cycle with 4 final stage rejections (plus probably 100+ firms across the 3 cycles who I didn't get past the initial app/online test/video interview etc stage for). Posting this so I can look back in September 2025 when I have a TC offer and reminisce!
Part of it is down to the correlation of passing the SQE/LPC if you have higher grades.Why so much emphasis on grades? Law firms are business, not universities. I know it's a "data point". Still, endless questions about exam marks. Is law not just a business? Is it really that academic? It seems you just apply rules. The work is easy, unlike WG. It feels like a gate-kept profession. Grades are surely not that relevant. I know Partners who got 2.2s.
Same, it's thrown me off a bit lol was expecting a test first! Have you managed to schedule yours yet?No, just the application forms. Video interview. Maybe the test will be after?
