    Hi - re Simmons & Simmons does this mean they have offered all AC places?
    This is their wording to me:
    Unfortunately due to the high volume of applications, we are now at capacity for our Summer Vacation Scheme and are unable to progress your application to the next stage of our assessment process. Regrettably, we cannot transfer your application to another scheme.

    Has anyone who applied to Shoosmiths not received an invite to do the strengths test? I notice a lot of people saying they have and was wondering if this was actually the next step or whether it just runs concurrently.

    Pretty sure they get every single candidate to do the test. Worth checking your spam folder or on the portal. If not there then I would deffo email them.

    Ah yeah sorry should have clarified - I have done the test but wanted to see if that was genuinely the next stage or whether they just view it holistically. But thanks!

    Thanks - I am super confused as have not had PFO yet from Simmons and Simmons post VI. But now have they filled all their spots?
    I’m sure they’ll be getting in contact with everyone soon but I wouldn’t assume you won’t get through until they confirm it - you don’t know where your app is in their process.
