Taylor Wessing Written Exercise! Have no idea what to expect, any tips?!

 

[Gg2001]

NRF TC offer! 🥳🥳🥳

Congrats NRF is a great firm, ive heard amazing things about them

Stop giving such terrible advice mate! You said the same thing about Kirkland and you were compltely mistaken. Firms have a deadline for a reason, if your application is good enough then you will progress, firms are looking for the best talent not those who can apply earliest!

Literally just apply lad, I’d always be sceptical with people dissuading you from making applications within the deadline. At the end of the day, you lose nothing in sending it off🫶🏾

Heya congrats! when did u apply for RPC- I applied a while ago and can’t remember if this is the round directly after an initial application?

Don’t worry since it’s sent now. You did what you could and it’s in their hands. If you fit the firm they will pick you up regardless of when you applied before the deadline.

Hi @Andrei Radu @Ram Sabaratnam @Jessica Booker ! Are there any threads of examples of commercial (not corporate) case studies anywhere?

 

[marisachr]

Congratulations!! Can I ask when you did the test?

I completed it on the 6th of November!

Any help would be really appreciated!! 🙂

AI question you can answer at least 4 ways:

* I use AI as part of my research strategy but I didn't use any of its ideas on this occasion
* I used AI as part of my research strategy. I found point X, which it made, to be useful, and researched it before adding it to my answer in my own words.
* I often use AI but don't use it in writing answers because inauthentic
* I use AI as part of my proofreading process to help me spot errors in my content.

Why would Forsters go through the trouble of telling us they’d respond by today, only to not respond today 😂? Unless they’re planning on sending out a late-night email…

They seemed so definitive and sure about it; would not look good if they fail to deliver on time 😂 😂
