Is anyone still else waiting on Reed Smith post app?
Hey Guest, do you have a question for graduate recruitment? Gemma Baker from Willkie is live to answer your questions!
Longlisted means it’s just a larger group of candidates rather than a shortlist. A shortlist may only be a handful of candidates, while a long list maybe a large group of candidates that are then whittled down to how many they need to interview.Does anyone know what this means please?
“Thank you for applying for Birketts LLP's 2025 vacation scheme.
We are emailing to inform you that your application has been long-listed by our Early Careers Team and subsequently sent to our Early Careers Partners to review.
We will be in touch shortly to confirm if our Early Careers Partners would like to invite you to an interview.”
I have heard of being shortlisted but what does long listed mean? Has anyone else received this/is it standard?
Apologies, I haven't got any knowledge of Bakers AC but just wanted to ask when you heard back from them & when you applied?Any insights into Baker McKenzie's assessment centre? I can share tips for Hogan Lovells, Macfarlanes, Travers Smith, HFW, WFW and Fieldfisher assessment centres.
It says you have 7 days to complete the assessment from the time you receive the email. So I assume that means finishing and submitting it before that deadline.Do I need to complete the Macfarlanes test by the end of the assessment window? Or just started it?
Thank you! That's what I was thinking. I just wanted to confirm. What WG elements were in it?It says you have 7 days to complete the assessment from the time you receive the email. So I assume that means finishing and submitting it before that deadline.
