Is HL like Linklaters in that (a) you have to email graduate recruitment to find out your WG results/report and (b) they will give it to u if u ask?
Thanks and gl!

If you’re still waiting on an outcome for a firm, is it ok to reach out or should you just wait for them to respond?

 

[shays]

anyone heard back from Latham or Akin?

 

[shays]

oh and with HFW, anyone knows if when you apply close to the deadline (cause they are rolling) will they treat your application as for the TC solely or in that case is it flat out better to wait past the VS deadline and apply for the TC only?

how did you find it?!

I asked HL and they ghosted me... so Idk 😂 😂

 

[AlegalA]

When did you do the test?

I got the invite 18/12, and we had 7 days to complete it. Not entirely sure which day I did it on tho 😂

 

[lawyerletsgo]

also any insight into the macfarlanes test?

 

[legalxp2]

Has anyone who applied to CMS heard back after their initial application? I've heard that some have received tests already but I've only received a confirmation email with no mention of anything else - should I assume a PFO?

I applied a while back and did the tests - have yet to hear back!

 

[cwhite233]

Anyone hasn't heard back from Sidley Austin (summer), Weil (Summer), and Gibson Dunn (Summer)- I submitted these three quite early, shall I assume PFO?

Still waiting to hear back from Sidley re winter (they have said they will update me soon even though the scheme finished) - not sure if that's helpful but may mean it will be some time!
