CPS Pupillage/Legal Trainee Scheme (Oct 2026 Start!)

actually what i remember from last year is that they updated the portals of those who made it to the next stage last cause i remember my friend who passed the video interview stage still didnt have an update when i got my rejection email. so i am not very hopeful now. i do think there is a correlation between the outcome and when you receive your update.

Sorry does that mean that last year if your portal hasn't updated you are more likely to be successful? Mine hasn't updated yet and I am so nervous!

Havent heard anything yet and my portal hasn't updated yet either from January!

I know video interview results have not been announced yet, I am just curious.
Does anyone know what happens during the final interview and topic presentation? Has anyone here done it before and able to shed any light on it? What kind of topic are you asked to present on? What kinds of questions are you asked - any examples? How many questions are asked?
Thanks in advance

For mine I arrived and did my assessment first. Fairly straightforward and I had all the notes to help. I was then asked to talk about this topic and asked some questions around decisions that could be made, public interest etc. I can’t say more than that for obvious reasons. Then I was interviewed.

mine was updated on the 6th... scary

My portal has just been updated today 10.03 at 12pm

Ditto. Here's hoping that's the successful batch... 🥴

I haven't received an update on my portal yet...I'm so nervous 😭 Knowing my luck I most likely didn't make it

My portal still has January on it as my last update. I am praying that doesnt mean rejection
