Are people still waiting to hear back about Pannone's July placement?

I'm still waiting! It is so frustrating. I am really anxious to hear because if I did get a place (which now seems unlikely) it will clash with another vac scheme I have been offered and I would rather to one at Pannone. Fingers crossed for both of us.

Oooh yeah that is annoying. Well my dilemma is less important than that but I might be going on holiday at the beginning of July but am holding off booking everything until I know, and the longer I wait the more expensive it gets! I'm not too optimistic about my application being successful though, but still want to wait to make sure. Best of luck to you!
I just received an email from Pannone (after enquiring about my application) informing me that my application was on hold for further consideration and that they were waiting for the training partner to make final decisions so that they can get back to everyone by the end of the week.

Thank you for letting me know! I'm also trying to book a holiday too. It's been difficult trying to arrange holidays whilst waiting to hear back from firms.

Thanks for sharing those details.

I'm surprised there are not more from other redbricks such as Birmingham and Manchester. But yes, looks pretty typical.

My friend who goes to Manchester is on the Ashurst vac scheme, it must be a different date or something to the one above.

He's probably on the vac scheme, some firms send a contacts list round so you can all get in touch beforehand.

Yep, you're right. I'm on the first summer one, your friend is probably on the second summer scheme.
Anyone had an interview with Edwin Coe?! Got one next week - first law interview. Don't have a clue what to expect!
