That is good at least..would rather now than wait on longer

Hey everyone, just wondering if anyone has heard back from A&L? It's not looking good seeing as they said they would be phoning successful applicants today or yesterday!

SeanPaul69

a&l were ringing last night but expecting a pfo in the post . anybody get their offer from MOP?

advicewhore

Didn't hear from A&L either...expecting my PFO any day now, at least they said they would be quick about doing it so it is not dragged out! Did anyone get an offer from them?

CapallBan

anyone hear from Frys yet?

pandas

Anyone hear from Eversheds? I have STILL heard NOTHING!!!!!!!! Going nuts! I will have to ring them Monday if I haven't heard! I can only assume its bad news but it would still be good to be able to draw a line underneath it and have some certainty.

advicewhore

Got my PFO from A&L! oh well!

It was a letter but I am living in London so they sent it by email as a pdf too so I got that today, I would say letters will arrive by post on Monday. I heard they were ringing people Wed night/Thurs morning to offer the places!

I think that was the final round for AC. What did you think of the interview? Again mine was more of a chat, I was able to manipulate the conversation into areas that I wanted to go down. The two partners that I had were very nice aswell. Have Frys 2moro and apparently from all reports it is tough enough

Hey lvinglavida, if you do hear from AC, will you let us know pls. I think u mite b in with a good chance.

Do you mind me asking you what you did, if anything, that made you more employable this time round? I'm not gonna give up but it'd be great to hear what people did to improve their chances!

Haven't heard from them either! Could anyone who got a call frm them let us know when the interviews are being held?

SeanPaul69

Pretty poor to send the offers out on Monday and then leave the rest in limbo. Any1 find out how many each firm are taking on this year

Atticus Lynch

Hi all, in depression central at the moment, have received pfo's from every firm I applied to (despite making final round with MOP and WF).

Was just wondering what is the situation regarding people rejecting offers? Im admittedly clutching at straws here but if 5-6people with offers from Fry's reject them in favour of say AC or MOP do Fry's go further down the list and contact people they have sent rejection emails to?

I was also wondering did people receive a PFO from eversheds for not even getting to interview stage? It was one of the only places that interviewed me last year so I cudnt see how I wudnt be called again but apparently they have already sent out their offers and I havent even been informed I didnt make the first interview.....


Oh and have BW definitely contacted everyone who will be interviewed as I havent received anything from them and would really have been expecting to get a call for first round interview

got pfo from Eversheds only a cple days ago (thanks to this thread i knew it wasn't an invite for an interview ), nothing from BW.
I also don't think they get back to ppl with pfo's if offers were rejected, they'll fill thieir numbers next year.

I thought I did this with AC this year, but somehow I know it didn't make any difference....

How do you know BW don't send out pfos if u don't mind me asking? Pretty bad form if they don't!
