The Official Vacation Scheme Thread 2017!

How long after completing the critical reasoning test did you have to wait before receiving the invitation for a telephone interview?

I did the test on the 17th January and got sent the invite today :smile:

Hey! How do you know Freshfields don't recruit on a rolling basis? Can't see it on their website...

I interned there for a week in September and they told us they've stopped doing rolling basis from this year onwards

J-SP did earlier on.

Anyway

Incoming rejection from Pinsents and CMS for me, considering that people received AC invite, and someone got a telephone interview despite doing the test later than I did :tongue:

I'm in the same boat with Pinsents. You sure it's not just that our apps are still being reviewed? Still says 'Application Under Review'

When and where did you apply? :smile:

Same, but it doesn't give me much hope.

On the deadline, Birmingham.

I applied on the deadline, under review email on the 10th.

I wouldn't be too disheartened yet because the AC is still a while away and there was basically every slot available when I picked mine. I would imagine they've just sent out the 'to be sent Monday' pile and will continue to do so all this week.

Did you receive an email after completing their VR? like saying about the app?

I didn't receive one after, the one with the test link said we'd hear within 3 weeks?

Last year they got back to me a few days after the video interview. But last year I was told they did not recruit on a rolling basis. Not sure if that's the same this year

The deadline for VS was end of December though so I would've thought I'd have heard by now... TC deadline is 31st January though so I'll give up hope after that. I've even sent an email to follow up with them and they didn't respond.
