hey has anyone taken the freshfields test?

 

[LawJ]

Has anyone heard anything back from Hill Dickinson?

 

[pleasepleaseplease]

I was doing the Freshfields WG and had not muted my notification so I received a call in the middle of my test which I immediately clicked to hang up on. However, now I am worried whether the anti-cheating measures may think that I was using another app and may disqualify me?

Did they ask for access to your computer and/or camera? If not, then it should not be a problem...

What’s happening with Linklaters direct TC? Just send a PFO already

 

[Legallywhatever]

For deadlines that are later on in the year, is it best to apply nearer that time?

 

[lawelmo]

Gateley Video Assessment. Anyone else?

 

[Mug Fan]

Gateley Video Assessment. Anyone else?

Yeah, same. And for once a reasonable deadline for a VI!

 

[hehostressed]

Haven’t heard back from fieldfisher or DWF - I guess this year isn’t for me 🥹

 

[cjwx]

Are the withers test automatic, they way the email was worded makes it seem like they are not, but I don't want to get too excited,

 

[lolololol]
