So I've actually just double checked and theres only one vacation scheme... Do you think it's professional to ask for a direct TC process instead? Im worried it will have an impact on my application

For those of you in full time employment in an office setting, how have you approached the fact that you're applying for vacation schemes to your employer? My contract states I need to get consent if I am to work with another company or firm, but in my application process I avoided mentioning Im applying as I was in desperate need of a job.
Do you think its best to just book the 2 weeks as a holiday?

Does anyone have any specific advice for the Forsters interview?
I’ve read that it’s CV-blind, motivation and commercial awareness based? Is this roughly correct? 🙂

Well done both; I received a PFO - it's nice when firms send out PFO & progress at the same time instead of leaving future PFO-holders in the dark!
what would you suggest if I have an offer for a vac scheme that expires soon, but I'm still waiting to hear back from an AC. I do suspect that I haven't gotten a place at the second vac scheme as I think lots of offers have gone out, would it just be safer to accept this first one while I can? Also should I ask if I could move the second one to summer now, or wait and see if I get a place first? thank you!
Northridge PFO post app ☹️ but gotsome good result on WBD test so we are going to focus on that!
Thank you so much man I really appreciate it fr @jacksollaf. Likewise I have been following your application journey on the forum. I’m still amazed at how you’ve managed to submit so many applications for both VS and TC. Absolute machine fr! 🐐
Best of luck for your HFW VS and I hope you are able to convert into a TC! 🙂

Has anyone else heard back from Travers Smith regarding the SVS? I saw one person had an interview invite but I haven’t seen any others since. 🥲🥲
consolations to anyone who's received a PFO - there are many other firms out there; you've got this!
I haven't received the test but may I know when you completed the VI? thanks!
all the best with the rest of ur apps! if u don't mind me asking, did they give any feedback why?
Has anyone heard back from White & Case post VI for either Spring VS or Summer VS? I applied on the 5th of Jan, received VI invite on the 28th or 29th of Jan and completed it on the 30th or 31st of Jan. I haven’t heard anything since. 🥲
Is it alright if I also PM you pls?Hey I did it last year you can pm me about any questions you have
Nope. I've seen that W&C had told those that have done the AC that they will get back to them mid Feb, so I'm unsure what that means for us ? Could be that they might hold more ACs after this if the spaces havent filled up after?
