TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24
Hi everyone! I was wondering if any of you guys are going for Magic Circle firms, are there any MC firms that you want specifically and why? I'm trying to deepen my understanding of how they all differ from each other. Allen & Overy is very tech based and I know them well. Clifford Chance has...- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

What would you say in response to why is critical thinking an important skill for lawyers? I want to cover my bases and make sure I'm not forgetting any points.- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

This! I'm not the biggest fan of tort law but best believe I can sound like I am if I'm required to talk about why I care about negligence. But to completely make up an internship is crazy, especially because you would likely have to prove that. The first options are smart cause how would they...- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

Lmao I would never encourage such a thing! :eek: Tbf you'd have to very convincing to waffle on the spot and not do too many "erms" and "ers" but we all know that one person who can chat their way into or out of any situation for hours. Idk why you got backlash cause you're totally right, you...- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

Not you saying the quiet part aloud 🤣🤣🤣 I was speaking to a guy at Davis Polk over the summer for shadowing, he was just finishing his TC and he said to me that he lied about having a law blog and being in a band on his applications when they asked about his extra-curriculars. Now personally, I...- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

Winter, Spring and Summer Vacation Scheme Deadlines 2023-24 (with rolling/non rolling checklist!)
I think they're really helpful for MC firms! CC says that it makes you 3.5x likely to succeed and A&O heavily pushes Forage. This is just my opinion but I feel like the firms wouldn't spend the time making 6 hour long (min) and FREE resources if they were not going to work in your favour and...- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

I just finished a 2 month legal internship at one of the big bank; my line manager is a senior lawyer who used to work at Clifford Chance and when I told her that I was thinking of applying to Weil Gotshall & Manges she told me that her team used to joke about them and call them Weil God-awful...- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

Weil Training Contract Application 2025
Hi! It's great you've made this for us all to stay in contact. I applied on 31/7 and unfortunately I still haven't heard back. I'm really tempted to just call Weil and ask when we'll hear back but I know it probs won't help my chances of success. It's likely not a great sign that I haven't...- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

Does anyone know how reasonable adjustments work for written assessments? I'm pretty sure I've got ADHD (lucky me) cause it's getting worse and I'm struggling really hard to focus on one thing at once, so I think it would be smart for me to ask for reasonable adjustments. My first issue is that...- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor

Well, hopefully tomorrow/ this week Weil will start giving responses. I am pretty nervous though because their vac scheme will be opening soon, they only recruit up to 15 a year and whilst I do I think I have the potential to get a TC - I don't like my chances, especially as we near September.- The6FigureSuccessfulSolicitor
