Anyone who booked the weil ac slots, how many were left?

is it likely a PFO if we haven’t heard yet?

 

[aphelion]

I believe this is the case.

You're right haha, sorry I should have just searched the forum as it's already been asked and answered 😂

is it likely a PFO if we haven’t heard yet?

I hope not... holding out some hope because they staggered responses for VI but if people are booking slots already then maybe

If people are only now receiving AC invites I dont think you guys should assume PFO. If the VI was staggered I imagine the AC invites would be the same. 🙂

Best of luck to everyone who applied to Weil! I haven’t applied to Weil but hoping for the best for those of you that did. 🙂​

Can someone remind me of SPB London vac scheme date(s) please?

 

[BillSikes]

Gateley VI invite Manchester. Applied deadline. I am assuming this is not automatic as already done automatic SJT.

 

[Tintin06]

Goodwin rejection - thought app was decent. Two rejections in one day - oops.

 

[TCpleasex]

Gateley VI for Manchester!! Applied couple of days before the deadline.

any tips for a VI? I have only done one VI before a couple of years back and was rejected after hahaha. It just felt so unnatural!!!!

 

[walterwhite]

[Katy12345]

Manchester for me and my friend

 

[CCLaw]

This is super last minute but would really appreciate some insight. I have an AC tomorrow and really struggling with how to choose a deal that the form has worked on and discuss it. What factors should i consider when discussing the deal?

@Ram Sabaratnam @Amma Usman would really appreciate your advise as well?

 

[Dogsoooo]

Congrats! If you don't mind me asking- did you just get it?

some time around 3pm today

US topics
Tariffs
DEI
World Trade
Deepseek investigation

Other
Data centres
EU AI act and the US

I’ve spoken about all of the above on every AC I’ve done over the past week. Form an opinion on US DEI shenanigans and if it’ll affect the UK as I was asked this in two different interviews.​

Thank you so much for this!!

Does anyone know what data centres relate to?
