Training Contracts 2016

Don't you have to set it up? Or did you get a link? I got told to contact HR to set a time which I thought was a bit odd for a test...

Ah yeah that's right, just email in asking for the link and they'll send it. It's not the SHL verbal reasoning test - it's a different one but it's fairly similar

I have not heard anything back from Addleshaw Goddard (Manchester) yet ... still says under consideration. I am hoping that is a positive thing.

I live in N. America so would like to hear something, before it is too last minute!

devonshires solicitors online assessments... anyone had any experience with these??

Hello, first time poster here! Just out of curiosity, when did you hear back about the online assessment for Devonshires? I applied in mid July and haven't heard anything yet, pretty sure it's bad news for me!

AG Manchester AC have been done. Not sure if you've heard anything back since application, but I imagine it's a silent PFO by now :frown:

What are peoples thoughts on asking a firm to retain your application for next year? Is that better so you're one of the first apps they look at, or is it better to just make a new application next year?

Any insights into how long Freshfields take to get back to people after ACs?

Coming up to the business end of things now, hope there's lots of good news for everyone coming into September!

I got a phone call from the partner who interviewed me the evening of my AC. But that was after 1st of Sep. Presume you're bound by SRA 1st Sep rule?

Ah, I see! I'm a graduate so I don't think the SRA rule applies to me. Looks like I might be looking at a rejection, so!

Thanks for the reply :smile:

Hi All,

I'm still waiting on the following:

Addleshaw Goddard, London - on the website my application still says "under consideration" and their confirmation email states that they would get back to us "in due course" - does this mean that they don't silent PFO?. Has anyone been on any London ACs? And has anyone been sent a PFO? Their "application timeline" on the website states that interviews and assessments centres take place in "August/September" - so is there hope for us yet?

Mishcon De Reya - I received an email on the 20th explaining that they would get back to us after screening all applicants so no news is good news in this regard.

SGH Martineau - I remember reading a post on here about how SGH are re-structuring their application process this year - does anyone have any further information about this?

Ince & Co- not a peep since submitting my application in July. I know they invite candidates to sit the Watson Glazer- has anyone completed this stage yet? Or been on an assessment centre?

(I applied to all of the above between the 25th and 30th of July.)

~Good luck & keep the faith!~

Hello everyone, this is my first post but have been reading for a few weeks.

For those worrying about wragge LG (London specifically) already holding ACs I wouldn't give up hope yet as they just got back to me today post VRT (completed 29/07) to invite me for a telephone interview so I presume they must be holding multiple ACs.

Anyone already done the telephone interview yet and know if it is mainly competency/application/commercial based?

Re other apps:
PFO from Slaughter and May after final interview.
PFO from DWF - same position as a lot of people rejected after interview for vac scheme so wasn't expecting to be reconsidered.
And I haven't heard anything from any of my other 12 :mad:

How long did it take to hear back from Slaughter and May after your interview?

Sorry to hear that. Would you mind telling me whether that was post application or post AC? Thanks!

Does anyone know if Radcliffes sends out rejections? Has anyone else heard from them either way? I applied quite early so I think it's a likely rejection for me! Good luck to everyone who has interviews/ACs coming up!!

Oh

If it helps, I applied last year and my application got rejected too. But I applied again this year and was a bit more lucky! So definitely try again next year - if you haven't already got a TC by then of course :smile:

I hear they also recruit a lot of their trainees on the vac scheme!
