Just got my pwc arctic shores feedback, but no news on progress of the application …

Anyone heard back from yesterday's Macfarlanes AC? Just want to know if they've started calling people yet. PM me!

From what I know we should hear back early next week.

PwC rejection after Arctic Shores

Sorry to hear that

These things happen the market is hot there are other plum roles, it was just a rough hit as I'd literally *just* been telling my wife I'd take it over some arguably more prestigious roles in the pipeline because I liked the vibe.

Anyone else still had nothing from Latham?

 

[CorporateLaw101]

I was contemplating emailing them because not to get a third holding email is ridiculous! Nothing shows up on my portal either. But like you said, I don't really want to annoy them especially as they are so busy.

The FOMO is just so real right now lol - I will just eat my feelings in chocolate instead 🤣

To be fair; the emails don’t show up on my portal as any correspondence either and I’m sure everyone else is the same. Most likely scenario is that they just simply forgot to add you to the update list.

Yeah nada. Not holding my breath.

Rejection from a dream in-house PE/asset management role with qualification prospects, following a really good interview (recruiter was told I came off very well) - cuts deeper than firm PFOs 🙃

Hi so sorry to hear about this which firm was this for?

 

[lp998]

Has anyone heard back from Clyde & Co for the summer vac scheme post-VI? Their website said we would find out within 4 weeks of the application deadline (Jan 2nd).

sorry to hear that When did you receive your Arctic Shores assessment report?

 

[AAA_a]

Hey! Could anyone provide me with insight into MoFo's first round interview?

Hey may I ask is this for spring or summer?

Hey guys, I just got an invite to an assessment session for Osborne Clarke. The email says that I'll be completing a commercial exercise (including a presentation) and the Watson Glaser test. It doesn't say anything about competencies interviews, etc. Can someone confirm if this is solely commercial awareness stuff and I won't have to prep for an interview or anything? Also if someone could explain the process for Osborne Clarke (i.e. what comes after this assessment session) I would really appreciate it
