MB are still doing ACs all the way through until the start of March so it might be after thenanyone heard from Mayer brown or W&C post AC?
Yes - W&C confirmed you can re-apply.Jheeze how have you managed to send in so many applications! 😮 Absolute machine frfr! 🙂
Are you planning on applying to White & Case Direct TC this application cycle? I don’t know if they allow more than one application per cycle so you can either apply for the VS or TC. I don’t know for sure though.
Best of luck with your remaining applications. It only takes that one yes! 🙂🙂
They sent a rejection over yesterday.Sorry about PW! Did they send you the PFO today?
Thank you, that is very useful!Hi @pleasepleaseplease as I have never been assessed under this particular format I will not be able to speak from experience, but as I see it this exercise is set out to test mainly two things:
Best of luck
- Firstly, your commercial awareness. More specifically, since you mention it could be unrelated to current issues, it will likely test you ability for commercial analysis. That is, can you identify the most relevant business considerations that arise from any particular issue? Can you explain how exactly they matter for a business' operation? Can you identify the different stakeholders and identify their positions? Can you then point out the possible courses of action and then make an argument in favour of one? For this, I think the best you can do is to read widely about commerce and to try to engage critically with the materials. However, in these last few days in the buildup to the AC, you could focus a bit more on materials giving an overviews about how businesses work - a great resource I recommend here is Investopedia.
- Secondly, your ability maintain composure under pressure, to think on your feet, and to defend your views. For this, I think the best practice is to simply simulate the assessment condition. If you can, get a friend to select a longer business article and then have them question you on it. While the questions will likely differ from what you get in the actual interview, if properly set up this will give you useful experience with this type of assessment and should make you feel more at ease on the day.

Did you get it today??I've also been sent the invite! It's delivered by a platform called 'Saville Assessment Oasys' and if you go on their website they do have a couple of practice questions- not many but it gives you a feel for them
same LOLLLLLYup, Debevoise PFO right this second; sad news 😕
They give you the options to pick before you complete the 3 600 word questions. Similar set up to when applying for the open day.does SH on their application form ask whether we want to apply for the spring or summer scheme. Had a brief look at the form and don’t think they ask?
Does anyone know when we’ll hear back from OC post the virtual AC?
Thank you! Low-key dreading it, I think it went awfulllllI think end of next week? Their last slots (at least when I picked mine) were tomo and Friday
