Anyone still waiting for White & Case for Winter VS? I applied on 8th Oct, haven't heard back yet but I've seen some who applied later than me who received VI invites (almost immediately!!) Bit concerned because they do it on a rolling basis, so I'd assume I had mine reviewed earlier
Still waiting! Applied way back in september

Thank you, would you at least weigh up the strategy against other options in an exec summary or simply stick to the one you’re interested in only? Not sure how I’d show that I considered the other strategies
You can talk about the pro/cons of the option you are focusing on and I would expect that to be sufficient, especially given the time limit you have.

This is obviously just my opinion though - usually instructions on exercises like this will give you some guidelines on how to structure your answer anyway though, so the instructions could completely go against what I have said.

Does anyone else’s status on the NRF job board say interview 1 after completing the WG? I don’t have an interview invite or anything but it’s the only one I have a status for

I've just completed the WG and haven't received that or any confirmation.. Maybe it takes a bit of time for the interview invite to come through?
