Should you wear a full suit to a law firms open day?


Yes.

I know it sounds very rude/ungrateful but I can't help but feel it's becoming a bit of a nuisance not knowing the outcome now!

Finding it very hard to finalise plans/other commitments for summer!
Hey guys :smile:

Does anyone know when TC interviews genearlly take place for 2017 intake?
Thinking of making applications after my penultimate-year results come out and want to make sure I'm not going to be away!

Additionally, if you plan to take a gap year after your degree (so 2018 TC intake), should you wait until your final year of law to apply? Or apply in your penultimate year then try to defer?

Thanks!
anyone have or had a telephone interview with Browne Jacobson?
Anyone know what to expect on a Gateley half-day assesment?

Anyone recently attended a dwf AC have any tips for me?
Seems like a lot of people, including me, have still not heard from Gibson Dunn. Do you think it's worth someone making a phone call to see if they are still bothering? What do you guys think?

Please do!

Also, I've not heard the outcome of my Clyde and Co app yet. Sent an email to them a few days ago, but not had a reply. Does anyone know what's going on there?

Still waiting on Mishcon de Reya post-video interview. Emailed them last week and they said they were currently screening and will get back to everyone soon.


have you checked your Mischon "messenger" thing? mine changed from 'video interview' to 'assessment day' but i haven't received an email yet about it.

anyone have any ideas?

Not been on here in the past day, do you have any updates?
I've been placed on the reserve list for Shoosmiths. Is anyone aware of my likelihood of still getting on to the scheme?

Hard to say this year with the SRA code in question.

It's usually late July and August though. Depends on how many stages there are and how many trainees they need to recruit.

Larger firms will have it spread out over a number of weeks, while those recruiting a handful of trainees will only have one or two days worth of interviews.

I would apply and then try and defer. But if you are unsuccessful this year, then you could apply next cycle instead.

Thank you, that's helpful! Will be interesting to see what the impact of the SRA code withdrawal will be
