Wait so they say in the email that they will not consider you for the TC AC? 💀
told them a few days ago i couldnt attend the placement if i was successful so had to withdraw it, but they said they would review my app for a TC. today they gave me the rejection after "reviewing my application for both the placement and training contract."

oh well! i never had hope for the TC anyway so onto the next

Got a reply from Shoosmiths for the discover placement. The email said that they want me to stay engaged with Shoosmiths as they see potential in me. Does this mean I might be invited to the AC, or is this a general thing they say to all applicants?

I think it’s something they send to all but don’t be disheartened rejections lead us to the correct path !

Does anyone have any advice on how to answer motivational questions, especially 'why firm x' in AC / interview setting, demonstrating strong interest and making interviewers feel that you made a deliberate decision that you want to train there and nowhere else?
