    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    It's been a while since I've posted on the forum but really happy to say that I've accepted the TC offer from Dentons! TCLA was a huge part of my application journey and a tremendous help. I really appreciate everything the team and the community does on this platform. I will continue lurking...

    Hi, I did my AC last month and haven't heard back since then - if they've filled all their spaces, I'm guessing PFO?

    Those who have done Denton's TC AC, how long did you wait until you heard back? Pretty sure grad rec said a week, but it's coming up to two weeks with no word

    It really depends on the firm - if they've told you that you'd hear back within a couple of days after AC, then yh you should email since it's been 2 weeks. If they've told you you'll be waiting around 2 weeks, then I'd wait another week or two before emailing. If they've not given you a...

    Hmm, if possible, I'd submit it early just so you don't lose out. Like at least by close of business

    I think they only contact if they're going to offer you a TC (I'm not too sure about the vac schemes)

    Apologies I should have clarified - they make recruit and make offers on a rolling basis. just wondered whether by May/June, there's less chance

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)

    If a firm recruits on a rolling basis but my interview isn't until May/June - are my chances diminished due to spaces filling up?
