Did anyone here get progressed with Skadden who has also applied in the past?

I’m getting the impression that they don’t progress people who have applied in previous cycles
This varies a lot by firm. Travers interviewed me third time around. W&C haven't rejected my application yet. A lot of people apply repeatedly. You sort of have to, really. Most people don't get past applying. Why hold that against people, honestly? Sure, it presumably makes it easier. But you're probably missing talent too. Focus on your other applications, IMO.

    Yea time to pivot and focus on what we can actually improve - the remaining apps!
