HSF PFO for summer vac scheme post reaching test benchmark ! applied on the deadline

 

[jomar]

I’m feeling a bit worried as I’ve done quite a few VIs and haven’t heard back from anyone. Has anyone heard back from:

Mishcon post VI
Willkie post VI
Dentons post test/VI
Simmons post yes/VI for summer VS

I don’t know if I should consider these to be PFOs

I am at Willkie written exercise stage - heard back within 4-5 days of my VI.

Me too - and for those wondering, I applied on 28 September. Hoping you hear good news from another firm

So sorry to hear - just wondering - was this post TI?

I applied on 6th December and have not heard anything. honestly am wondering if they send these PFOs in batches, as I have heard people receiving TIs today applied on the 13th.

HI all, I applied for DLA Piper on 05 Dec and did the WG, but haven't heard anything & portal didn't update at all. Should I worry?

The portal doesn’t update after you take the WG, so don’t worry about it

Same here. In the portal, it still says they are "receiving applications." 🤣

Did you both have in the rejection email that we suggest you get your application reviewed by a qualified person or something like that.

I thought they meant that my application was so bad. It made me think am I that bad at justifying my reason to the firm.
