Hey Guest, do you have a question for graduate recruitment? Gemma Baker from Willkie is live to answer your questions!
Yeah - I applied on 13th Jan. Did my AC yesterday, but it went terribly but they are running many ACs and they are conducting face to face interviews (virtually) beforehand so it may take them time to review everyone’s appsHas anyone who applied in January heard back from BCLP post SJT? Or for their Open Day?
May I ask if your portal has been updated after you submitted the VI?Waiting for a Gowling PFO at this rate
May I ask if your portal has been updated after you submitted the VI?
FYI mine was last updated 21 Dec 2021, and I submitted the VI in early Jan before the deadline of 5 Jan 2022. So stressed likewise 😥
Which office are you waiting to hear back from? I haven't seen anyone hearing back from Birmingham?Waiting for a Gowling PFO at this rate
London office, but you're right, it doesn't look like the Birmingham office have handed out invites yet!Which office are you waiting to hear back from? I haven't seen anyone hearing back from Birmingham?
Here's to hoping we hear back soon!!No my portal hasn't been updated since 21st December either! I also submitted my VI in early Jan.
I've seen others on this forum who submitted their VIs later have AC invites though, so that's why I'm not really holding my breath 😥
Ah okay. Applied on the 10th, completed my SJT on 14th Jan and haven't heard since.Yeah - I applied on 13th Jan. Did my AC yesterday, but it went terribly but they are running many ACs and they are conducting face to face interviews (virtually) beforehand so it may take them time to review everyone’s apps
Here's to hoping we hear back soon!!
If it's for a vac scheme, some firms give you feedback on the scheme - that was my experience!If you're successful in an AC interview is it still fair to ask for feedback? I am genuinely interested. Thank you
I think so! I think it might be likely they would give some brief feedback when they made an offer tooIf you're successful in an AC interview is it still fair to ask for feedback? I am genuinely interested. Thank you
Honestly surprised that clients are not beginning to challenge the 'filthy lucre' being doled out at law firms.Some Friday morning motivation for y’all:

Did you ask for the adjustment in advance of the day? Can I ask what the adjustment was too? Feel free to PM me if that is easier.Has anyone else had just absolute failures from firms in regards to reasonable adjustments? I had my first one in an AC yesterday
Yes, this is actually quite common.If you're successful in an AC interview is it still fair to ask for feedback? I am genuinely interested. Thank you
These clients make millions and so do the law firms. Not really filthy lucre going to the lawyers that work from 9am-1am IMOHonestly surprised that clients are not beginning to challenge the 'filthy lucre' being doled out at law firms.
