I applied a while back and did the tests - have yet to hear back!
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!
I think you should probably send a follow up email asking for further details IN LIGHT OF the scheme's completion... Perhaps they might be considering you for spring or summer... It's not over until it's over!
Hi everyone, I'm thinking of applying to Winston & Strawn and it requires you to submit a Vacation Scheme Placement Questionnaire, but I cannot find this anywhere in the application, or on lawcareers.net.
Does anyone have any insight?

Anyone that got a PFO for kennedys did they say in your email that you did well but the criteria was high, wanted to know if they said that to everyone
Hey! they’ve listed the questions on the website and you need to attach a word document answering them onto the application portal.
The questions
1. Why have you applied to Winston & Strawn London LLP for a vacation scheme placement? (250 words)
2. Winston & Strawn London LLP is a firm where you cannot hide in the crowd. We recruit those who we believe have the potential to rise to a challenge, are self-starters, take ownership of their work and who can roll up their sleeves and get stuck for the benefit of the team as a whole. Why do you believe that you have the skillset to thrive in our environment? (300 words)
3. What motivates you? (200 words)
I got the PFO, they said the same. Think it might just be what they send out to everyone. Does anyone know if you can request results for the WG on the test?
When you log in it gives you the questions there but you can't save your answers so I would answer in a word document and attach when ready to submit
has anyone heard back from Mishcon?
I know their deadline is today but I've heard some people get VI's

may be different for TC, but I applied for Diversity access scheme end of day 17th December, and received the test midday 18th December. I don't know if it's automatic or not though, because that's very quick turnaround if not.
