    Is that what the feedback really said? If you don't mind clarifying was it a level grades, University grades or the University you attended?

    Nope. How do you know when they would give us an update? I haven't received any emails from them. I applied on the 3rd of March. The wait has been draining. This is for the week long internship set up through Aspiring Solicitors right? And not the GLP trainee scheme.

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    I know this is down to the rest of the application and the firm's strategy, but is there a reason why this happens? You can do quite well for a telephone interview, you can get top marks as this commenter did but still get rejected. I don't get it. Surely you should progress to the next stage if...

    Thanks for clarifying this. It's probs best not to apply for the Eversheds TC.

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

    Ye I'd like to know about AG and Eversheds. Also is there a point in the recruitment process where it is too late to apply? Particularly for firms that recruit on a rolling basis? AG opened the apps for TCs on April 1st. I'm wondering how much time I have to submit even though the firm deadline...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

    Thank you very much for clarifying that. I thought recruiters would have looked at it differently because I cant say that it was a vacation scheme. However, I realised that I was completing a lot of work during the work experience. I ended up being given more work to do compared to the vac...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

    Hi, I'm thinking of applying for a training contract for a law firm. I'm wondering if this is a good idea considering my limited legal experience. Perhaps it's better that I wait for more legal work experience or next year for a vacation scheme? I have done bar work for two years during...

    It’s fine. I commuted from Northamptonshire into London for two weeks. They might be a slight delay by like 5-10mins on the odd ocasion once you’re on the train, but it’s fine. I wouldn’t worry about it. The services run well. Even with strikes. Not all services are cancelled, they’ll let you...

    Thank you very much @slowlyfadingaway I think it went okay. I was asked 3 questions in total. The first one tripped me up. This was "Why law and why commercial law?" I think I could have answered that better, I discussed my love for the skills required for the role and my internship both...
