Congrats! Is this for the "Spring Workshop"? Also, is the video interview the one in which you record the answers that you give to Q on the spot? I was somehow hoping that I managed to avoid all the firms that ask for this after a previous horrible experience.


Yes on both the spring workshop and the pre-recorded video interview! :smile: Jeez I know what you mean, I had an absolute car crash one last month (which somehow I eventually ended up with an offer) and I am loathed to do it again haha.

Oh god I ran out of time!
Oh god why do I look like a ghost?
Oh god my room still somehow looks a tip!

I think the last AC was last Thursday
So the reply I got from Macfarlanes was:

'We have had a very high volume of Vacation Scheme applications. We are currently processing these applications and we will let you know as soon as possible the outcome of your application.'

Same email I got.

It definitely is just a cut and paste job as they took two seconds to reply to me.

Still waiting on RPC and BLP post application (RPC in early December and BLP late Jan). Assuming as I've seen interviews on here it's a PFO on both counts?

Any news post video interview from Hill Dickinson??


i'd assumed they'd written me off as i find it hard to believe NO ONE has heard from them. however that seems to be the case! can't believe it's taking them so long.
anyone heard from IM Manchester this week PLS? haven't seen any PFO's yet
Anyone still waiting for a rejection/interview invite from Milbank or Mayer Brown post application? Haven't had anything from either for about a month. Guessing it's bad news....
