Summer! I applied 31st Dec, rejected post appSorry to hear thisCan I ask if this was for spring or summer?
I can't remember much detail about it, but I think you could prepare for alot of eventualities in an hour or so and then read them off script or use prompts.thank you for this
as i was thinking that if it’s audio only, i could carefully craft some answers through research. i know it won’t be my best work as exams are currently my focus but it would definitely be a shame for me to miss out
genuinely shocked though that i have progressed to this stage, as it’s rolling basis and i applied on the deadline
Go for it! It's a learning experience if nothing else
I applied just before Christmas and haven't gotten past the app stage
Probably a pfo nowAnyone still waiting on Mills and Reeve?
Hoping good news for you 🤞🏼 the email said they received over 700 applications in the last week and they had already passed people on to the next stage because they screen on a rolling basis. Hopefully you just missed that last week groupI applied just before Christmas and haven't gotten past the app stage
lol Bird & bird cop out - why would you want to work there if they dont even review all the apps they get and waste a bunch of ppls time? I applied on the 29th and havent received anything yet, guess I can expect a PFO.
Have people seen this story lmfao?

Last application cycle I applied on the deadline for their TC and passed the application stage. Guessing this year they had an influx of applications at the same time because their Spring/Summer/TC deadline was so close together. Summer and TC were due the exact same day. So guess a lot of people who put effort into their apps sadly missed out :/
Hi everyone - quick question. I have studied law during my undergraduate degree abroad; this is a qualifying law degree in there but it is not a qualifying degree in the UK and I would have to do a GDL or the SQE.
When an application form asks "Is this a qualifying law degree?" should I select yes or no? I'm just confused because I have studied law, it's just not in the UK. @Jessica Booker would greatly appreciate your advice, thank you!

I did my LLB elsewhere too and I put no. I think by qualifying law degree they meant one under the old qualification rule before the SQE rolled out (ie a recognised law degree done in the UK)
Got it as well really annoying because it was one of my favourite firms. Lesson to learn for next time at least!
So sorry to hear about all of the bird&bird rejections - I feel like they’re one of the few firms for whom rolling basis really is a thing (at least at application stage)
Hi,
I studied my undergrad LLB in Scotland so I was in a similar position; I always said "no" to that question (because it was not a qualifying law degree in the jurisdiction that the firm was recruiting for/operating in). If there is space on the application form (i.e. a space for 'additional information' in the education section) you could always say for the sake of clarity/context that though it is not a qualifying law degree in England and Wales, it is in X jurisdiction.
That's wildHave people seen this story lmfao?
