I can’t believe that no one here talked about how Eve recently made two videos about gender in the workplace with someone who is openly hostile to trans students and staff. When Eve and I were there, the person in the videos actively worked to make Bristol less friendly to trans people.
I do wonder if Eve would have been able to land her current TC with Linklaters if it wasn't for her YouTube channel, especially as she was essentially an outreach person at one point or another
I think her having this huge audience of current/future law students, plus a platform overall, probably gave her some more headway than a person who has similar grades/experience (outside of YT) to her
I’ve seen this a couple times in this thread, but Eve was never an outreach person for Linklaters. Most trainees get roped into doing something for grad recruitment at some point. The fact they humoured Eve and let her make a video or two in the office doesn’t mean she was hired to do outreach for them. Eve was a brand ambassador for a different firm though, CMS I think.
I guarantee you that YouTube had nothing to do with her getting her TC. She would have applied for the vac scheme that lead to the TC around Christmas 2016. She had hardly any subscribers back then. I wouldn’t be surprised if she didn’t even mention it on her application. The firm might not have known she infrequently made videos back when they offered her the vac scheme.
It’s interesting that she has hidden all of the videos she made in school and in the first two years of uni.
Looool. She’s very very obnoxious and RUDE and the sort of girl that looks you up and down if she’s threatened by you. She always went in and out of this posh accent, was so keen to fit in with her boyfriend and his posh mates. Just not my cup of tea tbh.
Karma is a witch though because she’s the only one from that clique still without a training contract.
Unlike Eve, I dIdn’t really know Anushka. But as far as I remember, Eve wasn’t really friends with her. It was more like Anushka’s friends were friends with some of Eve’s friends so that group tolerated Eve sometimes tagging along. Eve definitely wasn’t “cool” enough to be friends with them.
