TCLA is teaming up with BPP for a free interactive event designed to refresh your fundamentals, especially for those interested in or planning to take the SQE. We'll practise multiple choice SQE questions, with prizes for the highest scoring participants!
Register HereThank you and congratulations on the interview invite.Sounds like the first of a two-stage process. In which case, it seems unlikely they'd progress other candidates, given their schemes start in a month.
I'm pretty sure I applied to Summer, I asked for an update and they said late MarchHas ANYONE who applied for Sidley's SUMMER SCHEME heard back. even if it is a test. I'm checking something
no ac, next stage i believe is the actual vac scheme itselfJust to clarify, for everyone that has done the CRS vi for their placement (vac) scheme, is the next stage the scheme itself? I thought we would have to do an AC but from their website it looks like that’s only for direct TC applicants. Instead, vac schemers do it during the vs.
I'm expecting that to be their mass pfo day, as they don't seem to have rejected any spring/summer candidates. Ugh this cycle has been TERRIBLE.I'm pretty sure I applied to Summer, I asked for an update and they said late March
They must be monitoring this thread bc I just got my pfo lol.this is the email I received:
Probably, but I've not seen anyone get an interview for Summer here (not that the forum is representative of all candidates)I'm expecting that to be their mass pfo day, as they don't seem to have rejected any spring/summer candidates. Ugh this cycle has been TERRIBLE.
"I became too powerful, i had to nerf myself"ok, I may or may not be the stupidest person on this forum at this point I think 😂😂😂 Basically, I applied to Shoosmiths for a direct TC, and in the beginning you have to justify why you picked the particular location; so I explained why London.... As I started reading, I realized I started with: "I have chosen to apply to Farrer & Co’s London office because [...]" (because Farrer & Co had the same question, basically it's why London over other cities in the UK, so in my answer I didn't mention the firm specifically, but just what London means to me, but still stupid for not changing the name of the firm in my answer)... Such a stupid mistake that results in auto-pfo I guess😂😂 Thing is it's in the beginning beginning so not with the other main application questions, so I hope they overlooked it or something but I am actually so stupid😂😂😂
✨️For the beautiful northern accents obviously ✨️nah cos respectfully why would people take a 40k salary in the north over 100k for the job at the exact same firm in London (obviously I get that ppl may want to stay in the north but as a northerner myself I want GTFO and move to London esp cos it's busy and wayyyy more diverse - and the money is not bad either lol)
I love your optimism, but I'm just feeling so jaded by these rejections, I can't get myself to believe that.Probably, but I've not seen anyone get an interview for Summer here (not that the forum is representative of all candidates)
