Has anyone heard back from Paul Hastings regarding their PHirst Steps Summer Work Placement Programme?
I heard someone on this forum said that they emailed grad rec and they should get back to us mid April. Also, there was another person here got an interview for this scheme last week. Oh well, best of luck to us.

How long after spring vacation schemes are training contract offers usually given?
Can be fairly immediate (e.g. week after the scheme) or potentially not until all schemes, including summer programmes, have concluded.

I would ask the GR team if they can provide you with an indication of their timelines.

Does anyone know roughly how many people are offered a VS at SH? Surely not that many in the end with some applicants already being given a summer VS offer where the spring VS was full?

    Here is my daily “has anyone heard from W&C post AC” post.

    It’s been 6 weeks now and they said they would get back after a week. Is anyone else in a similar position? Feel like a PFO is inevitable if it takes that long.
    im in the same position as you but i think they're just sending it out in batches and giving offers according to the AC dates. the last people who heard back (w offers) were those who gave their ACs on the 3rd and 4th of March. i think now that the spring scheme is done, we should hopefully hear back soon!
