Re: The Pupillage Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2012My Kings rejection just came through. Grim times!(Original post by nearmiss)
yep, rejection emails seem to transcend office hours. I always prefer to know though! Do you know of anyone who has been offered an interview at Kings?Last edited by Shearn; 29-05-2012 at 17:46. Reason: Opened ark of the covenant -
Re: The Pupillage Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2012Yes.(Original post by TBJ)
You're Kidding right? I have read two stories about the Big Beat today alone... -
Re: The Pupillage Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2012I haven't received one yet, but I'm assuming rejection by silence.(Original post by roxymusicfan)
Has anyone received a rejection from 25 BR as of yet? -
Re: The Pupillage Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2012Yeah mine does........ no idea what it means though?(Original post by Chilbaldi)
People who have NOT received an invite from 187 Fleet Street:
If you go to pupillages.com and click on "View application options" for 187 Fleet Street, does it say "Application under consideration - decision made on 29th May 2012"? -

...It means they made the decision to offer you an interview/reject (or whatever they are calling it now) on the 29th May 2012...today.
That doesn't mean though that they have got round to sending out all the invites/rejections. In my experience this sometimes takes a few days. The admin staff tend to be doing it in drips and drabs. So suddenly between 4:30pm and 5:15pm 25 people get notifications and the rest are left waiting until (s)he gets back to their desk and has time to do more pupillage stuff.Last edited by Bar-hunter; 29-05-2012 at 19:09.

Sorry... slight misunderstanding. I don't have confirmation either way - i.e. no indication of a rejection or invitation. So I was wondering if they are one of those sets that never confirm, unless it is to invite you to an interview?
Thanks!Last year 25 Bedford Row sent out an e-mail rejecting people so hopefully it won't be rejection by silence this year.(Original post by dustbinbeaver)
I haven't received one yet, but I'm assuming rejection by silence.
Since interview offers seem to have been coming out gradually over the course of the day there may still be hope. That's what I keep telling myself anyway... -

Unfortunately, I'm one of those harbingers of doom who's trying to keep my expectations as low as possible, in a hopeless bid to avoid excessive disappointment. Therefore, I'm going to be a misery and continue to assume rejection by silence for now...
Anyone else finding this whole process very strange? I've had one rejection so far and it didn't vex me too much, but when I think about all the time I spent on applications and realise that I might not get a single interview, I do feel pretty disheartened. -
Re: The Pupillage Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2012Do you mean 1 Crown Office Row Brighton? And did they send an email or is it on PP?(Original post by andymt)
1 Crown Office Row Bristol say that we will hear 'early next week' -
Re: The Pupillage Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2012Sorry, I meant Brighton. It was via email - I asked when we would find out.(Original post by roxymusicfan)

Re: The Pupillage Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2012Didn't give out invites until late June last year apparently!(Original post by LEM20)
Five Paper anyone? -
Re: The Pupillage Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2012
Sigh, GCN rejection. I'm gonna go ahead and assume that I got mine a couple days later as a subtle note of encouragement to keep my chin up.
That said, I wonder if the clerks ever look at this thread and go: look! we can make all these people have minor heart attacks based on staggering emails!
