1) just explain the stage you got to. The firm might not be able to check depending on their data retention policy and how long ago you applied. A lot of data gets wiped (which is why they ask).
2) Your answers to things like work experience sections will obviously be identical as they won’t have changed. But I would consider whether you should update and refine any other answers. You might have better examples or stronger motivations this time around and you can’t assume just because your application was successful last time it will be successful this time, so always strive to refine, improve and update it
3) Just focus on the tasks usually unless the application asked you to highlight skills developed.

There is likely to be a pass/fail benchmark score though that might have generated this correspondence

No - I’d only assume you have been unsuccessful once emailed to say you have been unsuccessful
No questions for Linklaters, you just fill out education info and then take the CAPP assessment, then WG.
Yeah everyone's having the same problem. I called them a few weeks ago and they said the exact same thing- they're aware of the issue!
With the new cycle starting, I just wanted to hop by to say good luck to everybody. I know how stressful and exhausting it is applying to so many firms but keep your chin up- it just takes one! (basically my mantra throughout the whole TC process). My DMs are open if anyone wants to chat or if you need advice/another set of eyes
Have you received an email saying you passed / failed the SJT? I did my test ages ago and haven’t heard anything
In the same boat as you - I think best thing to do is not overthink it tbh as i thought they usually email if you pass but might not be the case
This info is all on their graduate website - https://careers.linklaters.com/en/early-careers/your-application
Are you sure? I’ve applied to A&O in the past and they usually get back to you straight away stating if you’ve passed or not.
Also, have you logged into your portal? Usually it shows you if you got to the next stage or not.
I know most firms get back to you post SJT- I know from experience with links, and from when I applied to HSF a couple years back but got rejected immediately after finishing the SJT. However, I don't think I've ever heard anything from A&O.
This is what I see on my portal:
