If anyone had any insight into hill Dickinson VI would be grateful - please pm!
I think your answer should be pretty firm specific.
Most firms have their own distinctive identity and won’t want to be grouped together as an ‘American firm’ surely?
Ok thanks! Do you think I could be asked why I chose English firms over American firms? Or too broad?
You’re more likely to be asked what other firms you applied to and why in an interview, if there’s a reason why you chose English firms maybe bring that up

Amazing ty!
Has anyone heard back from AG yet/received PFO emails within the past few weeks? I’ve only seen people receive AC invitations here and there but not rejection emails which is strange considering they told us we would hear back 10 weeks from the application deadline (which would be by the 17th March).
I haven't heard back (applied on the deadline day) but someone told me they've received an offer already (and their AC was in Jan) - at this point I'm assuming they've given out all ACs but I could be wrong. Lots of firms just prolong their mass PFOs for some reason
Is this Addleshaw? If yes, where did they say 17th March please? I’ve not heard anything since doing the VI early Jan but haven’t followed up as I do remember someone saying on the thread they received an automatic holding response
Don't think so, as this is the 3rd and last week of interviews with decisions by mid-March.
Trowers rejection post-AC for London
Assuming you haven't accepted a TC already there's nothing wrong with this - firms know people do multiple VSs and I've heard sometimes it makes you look more desirable when it comes to making TC offers as you're an in demand candidate. Though you don't have to post if you don't want to - some people don't post until they start.

This is such a personal preference thing. Lots of people do it, plenty don’t.
I don’t think it’s an issue to do so though - firms you have your VS with will find out you have the other offers anyway (as they are likely to ask you) and so it’s not like it needs to be kept a secret unless you want to for some reason.
I only applied to US firms and i was asked on 2 ACs why I didn't apply to any UK firms, so I would have a brief idea on what to say
