Has anyone who applied to RPC - Bristol or SGH Martineau gotten any information (PFO, testing invites, AC/interview invites)?

I applied to RPC Bristol, but nothing yet. The confirmation email stated this though: "We can't give you an exact date, but you'll hear from us by early September on the next steps."

I've been reading silently for a while now, and thought I'd throw my hat in the ring.

I've had PFOs from:
- Hogan Lovells
- Clifford Chance
- Norton Rose Fulbright
- BLP
- DLA Piper

I was told my application had passed through screening and was invited to take the VRT for Dentons but haven't heard since - is anybody else in the same position / heard back?

I have a telephone interview for Eversheds (London), and assessment days for CMS and Taylor Wessing.

I'm still waiting to hear from Addleshaw Goddard, Ashurst and Travers Smith.

(All London applications!)

When did you apply to and hear back from CMS?

Hi there,

I've had PFO's from
- DLA Piper
- Irwin Mitchell (post telephone)
- Walker Morris

Not heard from Eversheds since passing the SJT, probably also PFO

I have a phone interview with Addleshaw Goddard tomorrow and just wondered how they go? I was told I would get a briefing email but never received one. I'm guessing it's questions on competency, about the firm, where you see yourself and areas of interest/ commercial questions?

Not heard back from Capsticks either btw.

Thanks

Thanks. I saw that too. I've got to figure out if I need to consider altering my travel plans. Have flights booked back to the UK for the last week of September but that could change.

I applied on July 31st and heard back on August 12th - the final assessment centre is this Thursday though if that helps?

Nope, don't despair, HR said that they're still holding other ACs!

Thank you!

thank you! wonder what they are looking for then.. have to admit I am useless on the phone unfortunately

Don't worry about it, just be yourself and you'll be sweet. It was actual someone from the firm and very easy going, not like other outsourced phone interviews at all.

Does anybody have any advice/tips for AG assessment centre please?

Can I ask when you did your phone interview and when you were invited?

Thanks a lot!

Also a couple of people have mentioned Macfarlanes - I received an offer from them so if anyone has any questions, email me and I'll try to help :smile:

I haven't heard from them either.
Ive heard back from DLA and Slaughter & May but still waiting for Baker & Mckenzie, Taylor Wessing and White & Case.

A bit worrying seeing as I would need to fly back to the UK for AC if I get offered one…

I haven't heard anything apart from the confirmation email that I got after submitting my application.

If you do call please let me know what they say! I think these firms tend to do it in batches, in the order they receive it (I am hoping). I sent mine in on the 31st so it would be towards the bottom of the list I would imagine...
