Yeah very unprofessional not meeting their own deadlines as well… how shit. You haven’t heard back ? Please do give an update when you do and hopefully what they said in the website isn’t true 🙏🏼. And when I try to go to the DAS application it just says vacancy closed and doesn’t even let me view my application though?If you go to the website where you application is stored. The log in for careers at Fieldfisher. It will show the application you submitted and its status. I don't want to say that's what their verdict is. It just shocked me that an update like that had been made without me knowing. I only noticed this because I wanted to go through a response I submitted for a similar question that came up in another application. Take my information very lightly as you won't know what they think until they say.

I must be really stupid but I have searched everywhere and cannot find their application hub. They didn’t send me anything in email like other firms do with the link to check ur application etc. and when I click the DAS application it just says vacancy closed and doesn’t let me view anything. How did you manage to?I'm not sure as I only applied to London - if the other offices have ACs still to run then I assume it was just London.
If you go to their application hub your status should have been updated to either withdrawn/rejected or offer made
Sameee, can’t find their application hub and check the status of my application lolI must be really stupid but I have searched everywhere and cannot find their application hub.

How did you manage to?
I‘m waiting to hear back from W&C too post app for summerHi anyone still waiting to hear from Ashurst post test and White & Case post app? Not sure if I should take it as a sign of rejection or keep waiting.
I just figured it out. You just apply to a random job there to start an application and then you can see past applications. But my application didn’t have withdraw or reject thing ? They just said they will email the outcome?Sameee, can’t find their application hub and check the status of my application lol

Its on this page: https://fieldfisher.current-vacancies.com/Careers/Fieldfisher Vacancy Search Page-2074 - if you sign in by hitting the Register / Job Alerts button with the details you used for your original application you should be able to see your application status.Sameee, can’t find their application hub and check the status of my application lol

It is unlikely you will find a Canadian focused masters course in the U.K. - there just wouldn’t be the demand for it. Your best bet would be to study at this level in Canada.@axelbeugre @Jessica Booker
Hello Jessica & Axel, I hope your are well.
I was just writing to ask if you know any UK universities that offer a masters degree in Canadian law. I don't know if this is the best place to ask or where to go regarding this, hence the message. I'm currently unsure as to what to do. I'm in my second year doing LLB law but I wish to move to Canada in the future. I know firms like NRF have a great presence in Canada, but is this better or is it better to work in a Canadian firm headquartered in Canada? If everything goes well, for example at NRF TC etc, upon qualification, can I transfer to the Canadian office of NRF? Also don't know whether to go down the SQE route or NCA exams? Is it too risky to do NCA exams instead of SQE?
I hope to hear from you,
Thank you

My Qs were all very straight forward, sounds like they assign Qs randomly.Anyone else find the Bakers VI strange - very arguably philosophical questions being asked.
You could also speak to Canadian law student at your uni. At university of Leicester there’s a Canadian law society and they do Canadian law modules. If there isn’t any Canadian students you can speak to, reach out to those who studied at university of Leicester and who are Canadian, they could probably assist you on what it is like having a UK LLB and wanting to practice in Canada. Alternatively someone posted on LinkedIn about practicing in the UK via a TC and they moved to Canada but I can’t remember their nameIt is unlikely you will find a Canadian focused masters course in the U.K. - there just wouldn’t be the demand for it. Your best bet would be to study at this level in Canada.
If you want to work in Canada, then generally your best bet would be to qualify into one of their states. Getting a job in Canada may be difficult though without the right to work and without a Canadian law degree.
The other way would be to qualify into a U.K. firm and then look to move across through an internal transfer. But this is not straight forward/easy and there are no guarantees it would happen.
I would recommend tracking down lawyers who have worked in both the U.K. and Canada to get their expertise on this and the route they took, but I would expect that studying in Canada and then completing any admissions process would be the most reliable way of having a career in Canada.
