Has anyone heard back for Sidley Austins spring/summer vac scheme? Or are they still focusing on WVS apps
Just received the 'on-hold' message from Sullivan and Cromwell for Summer Vac Scheme - Any idea if this good or bad news?!
I think they are just working through these in the order you apply as it was rolling (sorry if that’s maybe obvious, this is my first year applying…)I applied to Simmons basically the day of the deadline and did my VI 9 days after the invite and haven’t heard pip nor squeak from them. As I said, this is my first year applying so guessing the process….
NRF WVS offer!! I can't believe it. 😭 I'm so shocked I thought my interview went badly!
Same!! I'm honestly so shocked but very excited
It’s not a rejection so it’s good news imo (I got a PFO).
Congrats! Do you mind me asking when you did your AC?

Then just provide your grades as you know them. Most recruiters will have some knowledge of academic grades from other countries, especially for those countries were they see regularly number of applications from.
Hello! I have a something that I’d love to have help with.
Norton Rose Fulbright rejected me for their WVS last week. However, they said that I can still apply in the 2023/2024 window (seems like they do this for everyone).
I have two questions really:
(i) What can I do to improve my application - if I have to change it at all?
- As I’m currently studying, I’m can’t think of any professional experiences that I can draw on between now and submitting an application again this window. I can’t imagine that they’d be impressed if I said “I’m enjoying my contract module”.
(ii) Can I only apply for their Training Contract, and not VS?
- Would be surprising, but just wondering.
I know I could ask GR these questions, but TCLA is so much more efficient and perhaps someone has already asked this.
Ty!

I saw someone post a couple of weeks ago that it’s technically not but they pretty much invite everyone unless you didn’t answer the q. Not sure how they know that though…is the CMS WG automatic?
Nevertheless, congrats if you’ve been invited!
