When did you submit your application, if you don’t mind me asking? Do you mean 23rd December?
I've heard of people who got invites for AC but they applied to Spring
I did mine last week and I would just say know what you wrote on your application and try to develop those points + make new ones so that you aren’t simply repeating yourself or reading off the application entirely.
I would also say to practice answering different styles of motivation and commercial awareness questions under timed conditions so that when you do the real thing you have a clear structure in place and won’t worry about running out of time.
p.s. I haven’t had an update on the outcome of my VI yet.
congrats!! may I ask, when did you pass the test benchmark?HSF Spring AC
What is the exact time for Baker McKenzie's Summer VS deadline? It says 1 Jan, but I would like to know the time. And does anyone know if they review all applications they receive since they review on a rolling basis?
Pretty sure it’s 23:59pm - they’re “rolling”, but no decisions are sent until after deadline. I got the spring VS last year and applied 6h before the deadline.
Finished Reed Smith's VI and online test about 9 days back, just got an email today saying they will be in touch with an update soon. Also checking Reed Smith's application Q&A says they recruit on a rolling basis. Does this mean I got impliedly rejected? 😅
They’re rolling but unlikely to be reviewing that many VIs over Christmas/New Years.
I wouldn’t read it into too much.
I am finishing up on an application which has the final question: "Please provide any additional information to support your application." A simple question I know but since the application already includes a question on hobbies and interests, and another on "any awards, scholarships, leadership roles or other achievements that highlight strengths for this role", I am not entirely sure what to include here.
I was thinking of expanding upon my involvement in certain extra-curricular activities and university societies that I referred to in the more competency-focused questions that require specific scenarios or include other work experience that I have done (the application limits you to four work experience entries for the work experience section). Would be interested in any thoughts on how best to approach this @Amma Usman @Jessica Booker
