    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Considering that I submitted my VI a day late I'm not holding my breath in the slightest lmao - I thought they'd sent the invite on a Tuesday, but it was actually sent on a Monday - so even though I was still able to submit it the day after it was due I'm not particularly optimistic about my...

    In all honesty I forgot which office I'd even applied for even before submitting my VI!!

    I'm just working with my dad to go over my response to the application question now! From my understanding there is a WG element but I'm not 100% sure. It seems pretty much in line with any law firm application process, though.

    This is likely a long shot, but is anyone else applying for the BBC graduate solicitor apprentice scheme this year? Do we have to do a Watson Glaser?

    I was rejected from them after WG last year. IIRC I didn't wait that long afterwards, I think it was a maximum of 2-3 weeks
