I did not apply for SH lol
I would appreciate any advice thank you!
In the last week I have had:
Linklaters post AC PFO.
A&O post AC PFO.
I have now had 10 straight post AC PFO's in a row. My feedback is typically that I have good commercial awareness/technical knowledge, but sometimes my (why x firm) has felt scripted or that I lacked drive. I am clearly doing something wrong considering I have had this many PFO's. How should I go about really showing I want to work at the firm?

Hi @LawLife , my emails do say you will hear back from us within 15 working days from the deadline, which would mean you would hear from us, at the latest, tomorrow close of business.
I hope @LawLife isn't your real name!
Hi there,
first of all congrats on two ACs at two amazing firms. Have you done any mock interviews or practice interviews? It might be worth this (most university careers services will offer this, please don't pay), to give more detailed feedback on why this appears the case.
Do you think that you handle nerves by removing emotion from your answers? If you are answering in a deadpan way this may be why they feel you are not enthusiastic enough - try and let a little of that emotion back in (if this is the case)
Is it me or this cycle is harder than last year?
Keep going! It only takes one!
Bit unrelated to the London market, but just received Slaughter and May's Hong Kong summer vac interview invite for those interested.
Also wanted to ask whether they permit 2 separate applications to 2 offices within the same application cycle, and whether that would affect either/both for reasons such as genuinity? Cheers all.

Has anyone heard back from W&C regarding their open day application?
HSF WVS AC invite! Would be extremely grateful for any advice from someone who's done their AC
I know they sent out invites a while ago, im really hoping this isnt a pfo lol.
Hi @axelbeugre I have got through to the second stage interview for Gibson Dunn and was wondering if you had any advice? They said it would be an article review with questions and then an interview based on my CV. From past processes, I assume this is the final stage but it is online which I think is new this year? Primarily wondering what type of article they give you and what sort of questions they ask about it and also how the CV interview questions differ from the first stage?
