I'm hoping to attend the one on the 20th of Feb.


Me too! Good luck! Have you sumbitted the open day application already?

Also for the question - would you like to add any further details, did you add anything? I don’t know if this question filters out lazy people who are not bothered to answer this question hmmm

Does anyone have any idea how long you have to answer each question in the Latham & Watkins Video Interview?


2 mins
Any last minute tips for the Latham’s VI?

Also another general question related to VI - would anyone advise to repeat the same answers from your application in the VI? Ultimately, I feel like the VI is a way for the firm to see how you articulate yourself/personality, would do others think?

No I haven't started the app yet, tbh I only just came across the open day opportunities. I was originally planning to submit a direct TC app.

I would imagine that question is probably for those who have been affected by mc's. If you genuinely don't have anything else to add, then I don't think your app will be perceived negatively.

Best of luck to you too btw!
DID ANYONE GET INVITED TO A CLEARY GOTTLIEB OPEN DAY TODAY? / Has anyone done an Open Day with them before and can shed some light on what the workshops/interview are like?!

Nope not yet - is that common?
Have most people received a response from DLA Piper now after submitting app and doing the test?
