But you can find the relevant information on the webpages of the big law firms such as Gowlings, Bereskin & Parr, BordenLadner Gervais, Davis, Osler, Miller Thomson etc. You can browse Careers page of the website to view requirements of the firm for hiring associats or articleship. Since you have already received response from NCA, could you please let me know how much time NCA usually take to respond after submission of evaluation application. I am planning to apply for evaluation in next couple of months. regards Sun, 04 May 2008 18:59:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/46689/last#46843 Thanks jaideep! NCA approximately takes 2 months for evaluating the credentials. so my suggestion would be to apply right now instead of wating for couple of months. neways, u can browse through the official NCA website, its got complete details of the entire process: www.flsc.ca
