If anyone here familiar with Pinsent Masons Vario? What are your thoughts on it? I have an interview for a paralegal role but not sure if I'll be interested.

i applied to mayer brown last cycle, do i have to do the test again or is the same test used since its under a year?
Has anyone done the Simmons & Simmons blended assessment yet?
If so, is it timed? And are you able to tab out to prepare for the interview questions?

90th percentile in arguments and assumptions but I only got 50th percentile in conclusions lol. I think I have a decent chance to meet the benchmark.
They record u throughout the whole assessment. You have unlimited time to prepare for interview questions but your camera is constantly on. Basically the same as for A&O if you've done it.
Is it worth applying for Taylor wessing spring scheme if apps opened on Sep 1st and theyre rolling? Or am I better off applying for the Summer scheme instead?
bit of a silly question, but how do people decide which open days to apply for if they are eligible for multiple, e.g. graduate recruitment/ lgbtq+/ black heritage?

As the deadline is not for another 5 weeks, I think it is still worthwhile applying. It’s not even half way through the application window, and the vast majority of people won’t apply until the last week or two.
Is it appropriate to say something like 'having spoken to future trainees at x firm' but not name the future trainees in your application? Alternatively I could name them, but I'm not sure if its as relevant as they aren't actually working at the firm yet. Or is it not worth talking about future trainees at all?
Hi everyone, Taylor Wessing asks for a cover letter this cycle (as far as I remember there wasn't any last time) - any tips for that? because the app also has questions that cover some stuff.
Not many tbh. I think we’d struggle to count on one hand how many firms genuinely take rolling basis strictly.
If your application is strong enough, it won’t really matter when you apply (within reason).
Some firms like Willkie operate semi-rolling. But, as long as you apply around 2/3 weeks before the deadline, you’ll be fine.
Hey I submitted yesterday and haven't received the test! I presume it will come in tomorrow?
