Hi everyone - i'm throwing out a general query and seeing if anyone has any resources or hints as to how to best prepare for written assessments?
Awesome! may I know when did you apply? and did they email you saying that you progressed to the first stage? Thanks!I heard from MoFo about progressing to the first stage interview last Wednesday

It's sounds like it's going to be a document mark-up, meaning you edit and change parts of the document based on set guidelines. I would use the Forage virtual internships to practice because you can then see a model answer - off the top of my head I think the Weil and Latham & Watkins ones have mark-ups (for L&W I think it's you responding to the other party's mark-up, which makes for a good example)Im wondering if anyone has done an AC with BCLP this year, the email I got from grad recruitment also said that part of the day is a 'mark-up exercise.' Could anyone explain what this is/give any tips to prepare thanks.

hey everyone, i have an AC in february for HSF’s summer scheme. i was wondering if anyone knew the number of people they tend to invite to the ACs, and the proportion of people they take for their vacation scheme? and then also the proportion of people from the vacation scheme they offer a training contract to? would be great to know what my chances are like thank you all and good luck to everyone with this whole process
thank you for this so i am guessing it’s pretty much one person per group? as i know they have 100 vacation scheme spaces in general8ppl in my AC. Small group. At one point, the recruiters shared the odds of securing a VS, and I tried to do the maths quickly. 1/8 chance I believe for spring VS. Higher odds for summer than spring, however. Take this with a pinch of salt, yours could be different of course.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but that would suggest ~800 people interview with the firm, I don’t know how many apply, but 800 being interviewed seems quite high?thank you for this so i am guessing it’s pretty much one person per group? as i know they have 100 vacation scheme spaces in general
Plenty of people do send thank yous. If you do, I would only do it to those you have contact details for - tracking down your interviewers email address can feel a bit stalker-ish at times.@Jessica Booker - also the wider community - In my country, it is essential that a thank you/courtesy note is sent to the interviewer after an interview. I understand this is uncommon in the UK and would not change the ultimate outcome, but it personally feels strange not to follow up, as this is just what I am used to doing.
Following an AC, would it be acceptable to send a thank you note? To the individual recruiters who supervised you that day or any solicitors who interviewed you?
On a tangential note, we had three recruitment advisors sit with the six of us all day as we waited for the next task/interview. Would they have been assessing us/observing our conversations even as we sat around waiting?
Thanks!
