Oh thank you very much! The GRM said that they were going to change their application structure so they might be late on that.
For anyone applying to Slaughter & May, I did the written study test and partner interview with them last month and my CV was a full two pages which they obviously had no problem with at all.
Anyone else still heard pretty much nothing from any firms at all? A lot of my friends have received a mixture of rejections or AC's from the same firms I have applied to and I am just sitting here waiting for something lol
Probably a PFO and I doubt if they even view your application
Ah but considering I passed their SJT I would’ve thought they’d at least review my app?! So strange.. anyone else in the same boat?

Grad Rec are obviously very busy, but I think it's incredibly cynical to suggest that they would skip over somebody's application entirely.
Hey guys, I had an AC with A&O yesterday I would give it a 7/10, (maybe 6.5). In the Case study presentation I spoke slightly quickly, but there was a lot to say to be honest. Also, I think I spoke slightly flat (a little monotone I guess). I think I covered most things, on one issue, he mentioned another way of doing it and to be honest it made more sense, so I was quite honest ... I said that hearing this made me change my view and why my view changed. Redacted post due to forum’s community rules - (TCLA moderator account). Be great to know you guys think of this response @Jessica Booker
In the second interview, it was standard competency/scenario questions. It went well-ish, I maybe some answers could have been structured and delivered better but not bad. Overall I did decently, I think it will be a close-run thing, if I had to guess I would say I will just miss out.
Does anyone know how long A&O takes to get back, how they normally get in touch?

Just got my Clyde & Co VI.
Silly question but by working days do they mean that they're not counting Saturday and Sunday so I have until Monday to prepare?
Also, does anyone know how many seconds preparation and speaking time is given?

I am not sure about Clyde & Co specifically, but with other firms, the working day does not include the weekend.
