Milbank handing out ACs on weekends. Speaks volumes about work-life balance there!

Just received a further email from them at 00:59 about my upcoming AC.

Hi everyone!

I noticed that in some of my applications on vantage they didn’t save the date of my employment correctly (although I changed it for the first firm I applied too) but some firms still have the old date. I don’t know if I should flag it up to any firms or wait to see if I progress first?

good scores in the NRF test was a much-needed nice start to my weekend haha

Can I ask if all 7 games of arctic shores were included?

Can someone who attended the Paul, Weiss Open Day please reach out to me so I can ask a few questions perhaps?

For the VS

 

[sapphireoreos]

anyone else still waiting for Mishcon post-VI?

Is this for the spring or summer VS? Applied in December for summer VS so this would be useful to know!

I attended. Feel free to DM me. I'm also not applying to them.

Hi, would it be okay if I reached out as well?

Hi, would it be okay if I reached out as well?

Just FYI... I went to the Open Access Open Day, not the in-person Open Day that you had to apply to.

Latham AC for Spring

when did you receive the invitation?

 

[ren1110]

Anyone received a response from Ashurst?

 

[lolasparks]

Any guidance for this question please? ‘what is your understanding of how a business generates and maintains a profit?' Thank you!

 

[NCTC2025]

Anyone received a response from Ashurst?

I haven't but I think someone mentioned that they've been invited to an AC

why does the covington application ask us to invent a new technology do i look like steve jobs

when firms ask 'creative questions' like this, i find it slightly patronising, because at the end of the day i feel like they don't really care and assessing these are subjective. it's like that withers question about childhood toys. just give me a job please

 

[mfuturetrainee]

does anybody have the link for the lewis silkin tc? i can't seem to find it!

The Covington question is sooo annoying. But I’m gonna have to do it since I actually like the firm 🙄
