Guys, has anyone had an interview with Shepherd and Wedderburn before, ideally at their Edinburgh office? I was invited to a first interview + verbal and numerical reasoning tests. Anyone else? Thanks

Is it just me, or is the Olswang online test pretty hard? I just did it and feel like I messed it up big time. I guess no one knows what their benchmark is?!

I thought so too. I did it today as well and got an email after saying that I had passed and was invited to telephone interview. I definitely got a fair few questions wrong so I don't think it can be that high!

How long does it take for firms to typically reply to you after an AC?

Didn't even get an invitation to Simmons' test ha!

Finished the HSF tests on January 6th. Received an e-mail the 7th saying that my application was now being reviewed. Was a bit confusing as it never said that I 'successfully' passed the tests or anything so I was unsure what it meant that it was being reviewed.

Ok thanks, I got the same email on Monday so maybe too soon to hear.

Just wondering how quickly people here heard from A&O?

I've applied for the First Year Scheme which said you'd hear back within 10 working days, because it's rolling. But that should have been yesterday, possibly today depending on when they went back after New Years. Were they on time with yours?
