My Charles Russell Speechly's app has been completed and ready to go for a week now except for one f******* question I can't seem to answer:

If Charles Russell Speechlys had a mascot what would it be and why?

?????

Has anyone please got any ideas about how to answer this?! It's driving me bonkers.

God I spent so long trying to do that one. I ran with the idea of symbiosis because of the CR/SB merger. I don't think my answer was amazing though.

That's the direction I'm going with as well, except the only thing I could come up with was amoeba. don't think that's quite what they're looking for... :confused:

Hahaha! I don't think it really matters as long as you justify it well and show you have good knowledge of the firm.

Think I've managed to come up with something semi-decent. I hate that it's such a ridiculous question that's had me stumped though!

How long ago did you apply and have you heard back?

I'm in the exact same position, all ready to send apart from this question! No idea what they're looking for really beyond a justification for the answer. Think I will be fretting over it all day tomorrow..

Just to update people on response times for firms to get back post interview (I know it's something I really wanted to know when I was waiting). Slaughters - 2 weeks; Links - next day; HSF - next day (all offers). And CC will be making offers from next week (which will be 2 weeks waiting for me).

So can we still submit applications tomorrow? I just have 2 more which are ready to go but I want to look over them with fresh eyes in the morning!

Has anyone else got an AC offer from Nabarro yet apart from liarpoker? I'm not feeling too confident having done the video interview on Monday and not heard anything :s-smilie:

I think it depends on the firm but typically I think it's up until midnight tomorrow

I've got an AC with Nabarro. They offered two dates: 11th and 13th February. Waiting for Links to rearrange.

Just out of interest, has anybody been offered a video interview with Hill Dickinson for the London vac scheme?
