    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    I had assumed the WG was automatic, but maybe not. Did you do the Rare contextualised survey that's sent out after submitting the app?

    Hey, can I ask when you applied and how long it took to get the WG invite?

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Will I be at an advantage if I apply for a TC at a city firm (and office) I currently work at? Like will my current supervisor and line manager be asked about my performance? Or is recruitment completely separate?

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    I'd also like any advice on this! I'm in a similar boat, but a law-related job. And I'm especially wondering if people in full-time employment (law or not) are able to get time off complete vacation schemes as they can be 2-4 weeks long. I'm currently in the interview process for a full-time...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    @Jessica Booker I have a done the Scottish Legal Diploma but am thinking of applying to some English firms - where on the application should I mentioned the diploma as a qualification, if at all (I know it won't really count for anything)? And should I mention why I'm applying for an English...

    Was that post-app or post-tests?

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    That's a bit odd. I haven't been invited to do any tests, and I checked mine just now and it still says "under consideration". And it seems they give out test invites before sending post-app PFOs, so I'm now guessing I'll get a PFO later this week. It might be worth getting in touch with them...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Hi Jessica, I emailed 3 weeks after my AC but didn't get a reply (rec said I would hear in 1-1.5 weeks), it's now been 6 weeks from my AC and I've not heard anything. Is it worth me emailing again or should I wait it out?

    Anyone heard back from TLT post-app for direct TC?

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    How long after an TC AC should I wait before asking for an update? The grad rec said a week to a week and a half, and it's been over 2 weeks now. This firm recruits on a rolling basis, so I can't tell whether i just don't meet their calibre and they are waiting to have all their AC's, and make...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Does anyone know if firms will invite more candidates to a virtual AC than there are places available? I got an invited over a week ago when there were two dates to choose from - the email said if nothing suited then to wait because they would release more dates in the coming days, but they...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Hello, I got invited to an assessment centre on Wednesday with the option of 2 dates. The default email said if no dates suit then to wait as they will release more dates in a few days. I decided to wait (as the dates given were not ideal with my exams) and now both those dates have gone, but...
