I think someone on the forum got an AC earlier this week ? I also suck at VIs so I am accepting the rejection already

Ah okay, they probably won't be finished sending them out since there hasn't been many on the forum, and they might be applying to a different office so I wouldn't give up yet!

Does anybody know the dates for BCLP’s vacation scheme?

 

[HopefulFutureTrainee123]

Congratulations! If you don't mind, when did you complete your VI and written assessment? I just finished mine last week, not sure if I should be expecting a PFO

About two weeks ago, so I imagine they just haven’t marked yours yet

 

[hanz123]

How long are Addleshaw gonna take to get back, haven't received an email or anything regarding a VI.
Is anyone else still waiting?

I saw one person say a few weeks ago they got invited to Dentons AC, has anyone else heard for them or get a PFO Post VI?

 

[Denver]

Has anyone heard back from White & Case post-written application?

 

[Angel13890]

How long after a Freshfields ac do people hear back?

when I applied last cycle for a direct tc, I heard back 3 days after but it was a pfo.

I know Shoosmiths recruits on a rolling basis, but has anyone actually received an AC invite and such?
I am sending my application tomorrow!

Hi!

I just got an AC invite from TLT I’m just a bit confused though because the email they sent says the assessments on the day will only consist of an interview and a group exercise. I was expecting a written exercise and /or a presentation as well after speaking to previous trainees, and there is also no mention of a WG test? I find it weird that the AC lasts for over 4 hours with only two exercises- Can someone confirm whether this is correct? Thank you!

im P sure they only review rolling and don’t make decisions about next steps until all apps are reviewed

Might be a presentation/Q&A or just shorter than originally said
