i know how it feels - i've had about 10 rejections although i didn't really want to get one at baker or allens etc. one of my 4.0 friends has had mostly rejections as well which i find quite strange - who wouldn't want to at least interiew someone who has a 4.0 in law??

Add two - Holding Redlich and Middletons. Up to 7 - woot! So far it's been pretty interesting - two people fainted at the Clayton Utz information evening the heat was so bad - now that's a way to get attention!

hehehe thanks man, i'll do that - was looking for a way to stand out :rofl:

thank you my lovelies :) it was nice to get at least a response from some firms considering how long it took me to do all those applications. my first pref is Minter Ellison - i know a lady who works in their IP department (which is what i want to do) and she's incredible - it would be great...

awww i wanta meet u guys... biz orgs... have had a look, it didn't look too bad but no i haven't started it yet. anyone else think the word limit's crazy short for an essay?? meanwhile, since we're in a clerkship thread, so far i've been invited to interviews at Clayton Utz, Minter...

PwarYuex i disagree with you completely about mac law being hopeless, although that's not the first time i have heard that. it was definitely one of my concerns, and is sometimes raised in tutes - whether mac focuses on the theoretical at the expense of the practical. in my experience they do...

i'm doing IP too - i never seem to be with u two in tutes i'm in the 9 am one. anyone else doing modern corporate governance? also, what biz orgs tutes are u guys in?

mj why not just apply then to the ones that have strong links overseas - like Baker & McKenzie etc? I mean even if you get it you don't have to accept. gosh everyone seems so over law at the moment - i've got a friend who's been padding her cv since the beginning, and has managed a 4.0 in...

seasonal clerkships with the big firms are only accessible to people with at least one and no more than 4 semesters left. but who's to say what a 'clerkship' is? we had one girl apply to the firm i'm working at who's only one year into her degree requesting a 'summer clerkship' with us. she...

g2g you're scaring me i'm not sure i don't qualify for your instant rejection system :bomb: if i don't get a clerkship after all the time i've been spending on these applications... :burn: grr damn inadequacy... you live in wonderful denial for most of your life that things are good and...

Trade Practices Law - D Remedies - D Marketing Communications - D Business Forecasting - Cr Was so sure i was going to fail forecasting, man that's a relief!

yeah i've been taking my sweet ass time too - wanted to at least wait until the results were in many of the applications require you to fill in an 'additional information' section (which is mandatory) - after of course eliciting every conceivable detail from you in the other sections. tricky.

hey mj/iwr/belinda/any wayward penultimate year lawyers how are the clerkship apps going? any ideas for what to put in for 'additional information?' i've already covered everything possible to say... why oh why did they make this a compulsory section?

yeah i'm also doing modern corporate governance. it's hard to pick electives - so many i want to do... either of u doing litigation?

hey belinda i'm doing ur exact subjects - ip, biz orgs and ethics :) stalker potential! so b&mj do psych - iwr arts? i'm combining with marketing, so figure ip wouldn't be a bad idea although not sure how easy it is to start out in... are any of u doing paralegalships at the moment? i was at a...

belinda that sounds hard good luck!!! do u think it's worth doing, i'm a tad unsure about that elective. what r u two (and mj if she's around) doing for electives nxt semester?

woops i handed them in separately. oh well. just to be clear - they couldn't use s 53B right? cause they were already working there? damn, wish i'd looked at that a bit more closely now. at least it's ova - have u guys finished ur exams?

tell me about it, i'm so confused especially by (d). do either of u get the whole 'related companies' amendment thing? or know where i can look? if only it wasn't a subsidiary...

that's sweet - i know i'll have to one day but they're one of the few things i'm liking at the moment and u need a bit of sanity when it everything hits the fan... really should have a crack at at least cutting down in the hols though - my dad's got to be getting suspicious since i'm seriously...

i don't know, i'm having some serious word limit issues - so much to say, so little words. i've pmed u btw.
