I’m sorry that you’ve dealt a bad hand with not converting or being in the position of receiving a TC despite doing multiple vac schemes, but I seriously think you need to take a step back, take some time off, and seek some support with your mental health.
Everyone - you included, is trying their best, and I know this is a community to help uplift each other, but making ageist comments based of something you were “once told” isn’t helpful for anyone. I think that was completely inappropriate to mention, especially considering one of the community staff on this forum is in his 30s and has received a TC. The only limits you have are the ones you impose on yourself.
I’m only saying this out of kindness but I do think you could do with a break and support from a professional and friends/family. Please take care of yourself
not to take away any hope for people waiting for W&C post-AC, but just for insight, I was rejected after AC for spring last year, and they literally sent me my PFO after the spring scheme was over
thats ridiculous, why would they take so long. they said i would get a response in 48 hours on monday cause i had a reason for them to expedite, and its friday and i still haven't heard back yet lol.
Oh my, I hope not ahaha so the deadline is 3 January 2025 and last year Lift-off candidates heard back mid December..
I saw some people were still receiving offers for WVS on 21st November last year, so I don't think its over until at least a week before the scheme. Don't know if I'm being delusional at this point, but its helping me at least haha
Regarding White & Case, I had heard by this time last year post-app for the Winter Vacation Scheme. I guess there's no harm in asking to be considered for other schemes. What's the worst that could happen? Anyone think that's worth doing? I'm slightly annoyed, having applied as soon as these firms happen, to not be among the first to hear. I guess there are reasons but it seems to suggest the strategy of applying the day a firm opens their scheme isn't worth doing. I still think it's a numbers game whatever people say on here.
yeah I think most people for winter have spring as their second option. I think the OP post was referring to waiting post-AC. Anyone waiting to hear post-app for WVS is probably being considered for other schemes / PFO
A&O Shearman rejected me TWICE! Why they emailing me again 😂
I know what you mean, I think the excess waiting time post-ac means a lot of us have the extra time to overthink everything, which isn't really beneficial :/
Same, when I opened my mailbox today, and saw rejection again. It give me unreal alive feeling.😂
Ahh try not to let the waiting consume too much of your energy (easier said than done, I know). Fingers crossed you hear back soon!
Has anybody heard back from Mishcon for the Spring VS?
I got the same - nice of them to let me know twice 😂
