Still waiting on Travers

@Jessica Booker is it worth emailing a firm who hasn't given you an offer yet that you have clashing offers elsewhere ? thanks

What stage are you at with the firm you want to email? And would you renege the other firms if you were to be offered at the firm you are emailing?

Nothing yet from Charles Russell Speechlys, right?

Anyone eligible to start a TC this year - L&W has just opened Direct TC for 2022 & 23

Interesting. Do you think it’s worth applying for their direct TC if you’ve been rejected for their VS post-app in the same the cycle? @Jessica Booker

I completed the AC at the firm I wanted to email. I haven't accepted the other offers yet; I want to make an informed decision

the portal did not let me

Have Sidley VS AC and Kirkland TC AC coming up - if anyone has experience with either I would really appreciate any and all advice

Congrats - when did K&E open for their direct TCs? I thought their website only had VS for spring and summer

They make it clear on their website and on their portal that you are not allowed to apply to their TC or any other vacancies if you have been rejected in the same recruitment cycle.

Yes I read it too, I might apply to Latham but will use TCLA service for my preferred firm (W&C).

Does anyone know what is involved in Bird & Bird's AC? They said details of the AC would be communicated but mine is next week & I haven't heard anything

literally just a 50 min interview and 50 min written task, there's QnA as well but that's not assessed
