    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)

    It starts off with a practice question then followed by 2 questions! Apparently the questions are generated randomly from a question bank so every candidate gets different ones. I had a strengths question and a commercial awareness question. You have 1 minute 30 seconds to answer each...

    In the same boat! I once emailed graduate recruitment and they replied almost two months later so we might have to be waiting a while 😂

    Congratulations!! I've not heard back from the VI yet so safe to assume its a PFO? 😂 I wish firms would just send out the PFOs before they start their AC/final interview process

    Ahh congratulations and thank you for the info! I'm assuming its a PFO then for me if the ACs are so close. But I guess I won't count myself yet till they email me a confirmation.

    Its very similar to the Linklaters test. They basically try to decipher your personality using SJT sort of scenarios, then its followed by the Watson Glaser. There's a preparation hub where you can do practice questions in the email to the test :)

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Hi @Jessica Booker I was wondering if firms check all the work experience inputted on the application form during pre-employment screenings or if they only go back a set number of years? I have a lot of long-term informal volunteer work from when I was in school from 2010-2014. Most of it was...

    Thank you so much for the information! I'll make sure to practice my competency/motivational question method. I was wondering if there were any commercial awareness questions? I'm quite worried about how to answer such a question in a limited timeframe 😅

    Bird & Bird VI! If anyone has any suggestions or information about the type of questions etc I will be eternally grateful! This is usually the part of the application process that I fail miserably :)

    It's been over a week, and I have not yet heard back from the firm. I don't want to email them again incase they find me annoying/I leave a bad impression. But I'm glad I informed them! I will just accept the consequences of my mistake and take it as a lesson for next time :)

    Hi I've realised I made a terrible error on one of my training contract application forms 🥲. Instead of putting I did my degree at UCL I had written that it was done at UAL. The deadline for the application was on the 3rd of June. I had submitted it before the deadline but only noticed it today...

    Is anyone applying to TLT? I'm a bit confused by their application format. The education history is laid out like: Education level: Start date - End date: Qualifications: Summary: There doesn't seem to be a separate category for secondary/college so would I put my grades for these sections...
