Hi @Jessica Booker , can I ask after an AC, is there a general rule that the longer you wait, the less chance you will get an offer?

Invited to the mills & reeve AC but I am away when they’re holding them and I can’t make any. Gutted but genuinely can’t change my plans!
I’ve emailed them to explain. Does anyone know if there is any chance they’ll be able to do something? I anticipate that they won’t be able to but wondering if anyone has had a positive experience in this situation?

What date have they given you. They are supposed me running ACs two weeks in a row. Week commencing 13th/20th

Does anyone have any tips for the PwC VI? Thank you in advance!

I don’t even know how I got onto the AC. But I would say just research the firm and the line of service and write down your points on a paper next to you , but don’t look at it often . Good luck !

Has anyone gotten a Weil response post V-I that wasn’t positive?
Because the only few people I’ve seen talk about Weil post VI have gotten AC’s and since I haven’t heard anything yet I’m getting worried

hi! you get unlimited time to prepare for each question so don't stress! SJT is pretty standard with some maths elements

Do you know how many VI questions you have to answer for the Simmons assessment?

Hi everyone,

I'm doing the Baker McKenzie AC and was wondering if anyone has any tips on what to expect.

I know I'll be doing the following:

- A document checking exercise
- Group Exercise
- an interview with an Associate
-a case study based interview with up to two Partners.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

 

[NMA]

Congrats! When did you hear back?

Last night

Has anyone received an update from Mills and Reeve still waiting 😬

 

[Seabird15]

Does anyone know when MoFo have extended their deadline to? It still says 6th Jan online

 

[Harrison.jm]

Within the next week I believe

ACs are still happening until end of January

 

[gabynosaure]

Does anyone know when we'll hear from Pinsent?

when did you submit the VI?

Cleary AC! Though funnily enough it seems like they've included a WG which they want you to do prior to the AC. I don't recall it being mentioned on their website/in events 😅

Hi guys!! Does anyone know, with a competency or motivational-based question on a telephone interview, roughly how long firms would expect a candidate's answer to last?
