@Jessica Booker Has there been any answers for this? I'm in the exact same boat, went to submit my 200 word answers and now all 4 questions are asking for 500 words? Don't want to write an extra 1200 words if it's an error on the application form :/
I don’t know unfortunately. I would check with the firm.

Just had an absolute shocker of an interview:
- internet cut out twice
- my brother slammed the door open letting the cat in and shouting at her
- the cat then proceeded to meow throughout the rest of the interview

is this all that I’m going to be remembered for in GR’s mind 🫣
Been there - spilled my hot coffee halfway in the interview and had a power cut

These things happen. Says absolutely nothing about you or your abilities as a candidate - I wouldn’t worry about it.

    With Sidley WVS PFOs, is it possible to apply for the Spring/Summer VS this cycle too? I think my application would be better & not the same (e.g. having been to Sidley events + other US Firms since). Does anyone know if they have a limit for applications & reapplications? Also does anyone know if a previous rejection will harm your chances on a second application? Thanks!
