Any response from 2Birds (post-app) and DLA (post VI)?
I've done the WG, VI & had an AC invite from 2Birds. I applied Nov 29, got the test Dec 8, VI invite on Dec 14 & an AC invite yesterday. They said in an event that they assess each part on a rolling basis so when you submitted/complete each part will depend on when you hear about everything. Not sure if this will ease your mind, but hopefully the more info you have the better! Good Luck!

Has anyone applied to Stephenson Harwood’s WVS and never head back, no tests whatsoever, only a confirmation of submission? When asked which scheme I would be interested in, I clicked winter, spring and summer. I’m not sure if that’s why I never heard back or if it was because I applied for a direct TC in the 2022/2023 cycle and it had only been a few months between that and my VS application.

skadden PFO - really sad about this.
So sorry Barbara, I feel your pain. I too am really gutted about this one. Shocked to hear they’ve removed the telephone interview stage. Quite a bold move to go straight from app to AC, especially as it was seemingly a very recent decision. Never mind, there’s always next time :)

I’m the exact same mate.

I'm applying to Ashurst and filling in the education section, and a mandatory section in the university grades section is "letter grade". They give you space for the number obtained afterwards, but the letter can't be left blank. I'm assuming they're just expecting 1st/2:1 etc, even though that's not a letter? Sorry if it sounds like such a pedantic question!
