I was on the Insight Day a few weeks ago and they do not recruit on a rolling basis!I remember that Paul Hastings' TC is rolling but the deadline is in June or July. Anyone know when is a good time to apply and when grad rec usually progresses applicants?
Oh I agree 😭😭 but I'm just wondering what to expect. Basically just wondering if because I sent during the holidays, will I be cooked and not get my application reviewed.I doubt they've gotten around to reading yours. Not only has it only been four days since you submitted, those four days were Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and today 😭 . Have patience! Good things will come to you soon
No, and they close on 31/12. I will be submitting my Sunday or Monday.is kirkland rolling? if it is i won't be applying as deadline is 1st of Jan. thanks!
Pretty sure Kirkland is rollingNo, and they close on 31/12. I will be submitting my Sunday or Monday.
TBF I got this information from someone in the WhatsApp group lol...Pretty sure Kirkland is rolling
I got an AC at Covington last year with a mid 2:1 (law) so assume they’re fine - I did have quite scattered grades though and mitigating circumstances so don’t know if that impacted thingsHi all, which U.S. firms are known to be strict on grades? I currently have Debevoise, Sidley, V&E, Orrick, Covington, and Ropes & Gray on my list. Should I avoid any of these with a mid 2:1 overall🥹
I thought it was non-rolling? Certainly was last cycleI remember that Paul Hastings' TC is rolling but the deadline is in June or July. Anyone know when is a good time to apply and when grad rec usually progresses applicants?
Do you have strong A Levels?I got an AC at Covington last year with a mid 2:1 (law) so assume they’re fine - I did have quite scattered grades though and mitigating circumstances so don’t know if that impacted things
I did it a few weeks ago, I remember it being untimed but might be good to get a second opinion.for the VI portion of the Mayer Brown job sim, how long is the prep/answer time?
If you don’t mind me asking, did Grad Rec confirm if they offer Training Contracts from their Placement Scheme? Or do you have to apply for both roles separately (or just apply to the Training Contract role itself) ?I was on the Insight Day a few weeks ago and they do not recruit on a rolling basis!
Hi Jessica, you've said 1400-1600 across the 4 questions but the final question is 'Please include any other information that you consider to be relevant to your application', is it necessary to answer this question? Since there's no word count for the other questions I feel like I won't need to include anything in this box and it wouldn't make sense to split information between this question and another just for the sake of having a more even spread of the word count and putting an answer in this box - can you please advise?I generally say to aim for around 1400-1600 across the four questions. One answer might be longer than another but I generally feel like you don’t want it to be much more than this amount it total as it’s going to be a lot to read.
A*AADo you have strong A Levels?
I did a Vac Scheme at White & Case last year with a low 2.1Hi all, which U.S. firms are known to be strict on grades? I currently have Debevoise, Sidley, V&E, Orrick, Covington, and Ropes & Gray on my list. Should I avoid any of these with a mid 2:1 overall🥹
I don’t really remember tbh I didn’t ask directly. They told all of us on the insight day we should only apply to the TC.If you don’t mind me asking, did Grad Rec confirm if they offer Training Contracts from their Placement Scheme? Or do you have to apply for both roles separately (or just apply to the Training Contract role itself) ?
You don’t have to answer this question but I would question whether there could be something in this answer. I’d say for around 80-90% of candidates they have something to include in this which doesn’t naturally fit into other application questions or they haven’t had the opportunity to present elsewhere.Hi Jessica, you've said 1400-1600 across the 4 questions but the final question is 'Please include any other information that you consider to be relevant to your application', is it necessary to answer this question?
