[AvniD]

Wow, forum's raining good news today!! 🎉🥳🎉🥳 Congratulations y'all!! I encourage you to post here in the forum to let everyone know how your experience was and what your tips are for passing the stage you've reached if you feel comfortable doing so- we'd love to hear from you!

Also,

For those asking for VI and AC tips feel free to check this and this post out 😇

Bristows VI for the TC! Yay!!!🤩

after a string of rejections I've been invited to Bird & Bird VI!!
super nervous as this is my first one - does anyone have any Bird & Bird specific tips at all? like maybe how many questions there are, whether there is a commercial question or mainly competency/the three whys, or just how they found it?
thanks so much, hope everyone is thriving today!!

Has anyone heard back from NRF for their summer scheme after the application form?

Hi Guys, I did my CMS VI on the 20th of Nov and it still states “reviewed” on the application portal, should I assume a PFO?

Also anyone heard anything back from Mischon?

 

[mckelly]

When was the last time someone received a Weil WG test?

 

[aspiringlawyer123_]

If a VI doesn’t say “reviewed” yet and only says “completed” does this mean it definitely hasn’t been seen yet?

What to do if a firm only gives you one slot to choose for an assessment centre? unable to make as have an exam!

I have exactly the same thing, starting to think the same. As my video interview went horrifically as it was the first one I had done. But on the bright side have a final interview for Dickson Minto next week and assessment centre the following week for Dentons so I am not overtly worried.
