    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    I applied last year and was invited to AC. The first test is like a mini game-based assessment, with questions like how to get from point A to point B with the least steps. The second test is to test emotional intelligence, asking what emotion the pictures show. I got around 60%-70% for both but...

    Applying for VS as a paralegal

    Hi everyone, I just got a paralegal role at an international law firm and I am thinking about applying for vacation schemes this cycle. I am wondering if anyone on the forum has been in a similar position as me. Would I need to use my annual leave to attend ACs and VS? I have also heard about...

    Flex Legal experience?

    I used to work on a 2 week document review project with people from Flex (I got the job from a different recruiter).

    Difference between compliance and legal jobs

    Hi Jessica, Sorry for the belated reply. To be honest I am not sure. I saw the job post on my university careers website and it just says 'internship programme'. But it has 3 stages, one written assessment and 2 interviews. So I'm guessing it is not going to be a short one.

    Which firms are harsh on academics?

    Hi everyone, I just graduated from a London RG university with a mid-2.1 overall. I have a 2.2 in my final year so I am really concerned with how this will look in my application. Are there any firms notoriously harsh on grades that I should avoid? I understand academic results are not...
