P/A #2 Thursday 30th June 2022 - 5:30pm: My Training Contract Offers: Reflections on the Vacation Schemes that got me there
Wow, thanks Jaysen and AvniD. Really appreciate it. I do enjoy posting on the forum where I feel I can help (I would be doing more if I had the time!) Just thought I would share this Legal Cheek article that is related to this thread...- F1_Legal

P/A #2 Thursday 30th June 2022 - 5:30pm: My Training Contract Offers: Reflections on the Vacation Schemes that got me there
There are a few things that I would share (please take this advice with a pinch of salt as I have not attended a vac scheme, but have secured a direct TC). 1. A vac scheme is a 2-way process: While the 'purpose' of a vac scheme is to select a small group of schemers onto the TC, it is also for...- F1_Legal

Not quite. They are heavily involved in tech so that's already a good start in terms of my interests. But the dream to work in F1 is still there, I personally just felt I needed to qualify with a TC and get some PQE before I move in-house, and potentially directly at an F1 team as legal counsel...- F1_Legal

LPC Application strategy
Hi, Just wanted to ask about the LPC application strategy. I personally want to go for BPP because they have a campus in Cambridge. But in terms of getting offered a bursary, I have heard it might be wiser to apply to ULaw as well (as BPP will be able to see this). And then there is the...- F1_Legal

LPC - ULaw v BPP
Hi Jane, Do you mind if I ask why your children did not opt for the Masters option. I am weighing up whether or not to go for the integrated LLM option. I understand getting an LLM from BPP by doing 2 extra modules is not that valuable (compared to a full year LLM at a 'proper/traditional' uni)...- F1_Legal

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)
In my third cycle of applications, I have finally secured a Training Contract! Interestingly, this was my first ever direct TC application and I have never secured a vac scheme (take what you will from that). I want to thank the entire TCLA team for their invaluable advice and guidance along...- F1_Legal

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)
Just wondering if anyone knows what the 'white' vs 'grey' boxes mean on LCN for TC's and Vac's. Is it that there are very few places left or if they are 'rolling'?- F1_Legal

Share your interview nightmares, sticky situations and stories!
@James Carrabino I'm curious how you responded to the "I have no f****** clue" or "I applied to 50 jobs and this is the only one I got"? I'm guessing you just laugh it out?- F1_Legal

Let's hear about TCLA members' hobbies!
Yep, so he would be allowed to overtake them (they have to let him go asap as they are not 'racing him'). BUT, by then, Lewis would have gone well ahead (in F1, 5 seconds is 'well ahead') and there was only 1 lap left. FIA wanted a show, wanted a moment, and wanted the season to end with a...- F1_Legal

Let's hear about TCLA members' hobbies!
Yep you've asked the perfect question! So essentially there was not enough time to let all the unlapped cars go before the final lap. So Massi had to decide either let none of them go, in which case Max would be stuck behind 4 lapped cars for the final lap, giving Lewis the win. OR, let all of...- F1_Legal

Ahahaha, yep so lapped cars are the back-markers that Lewis and Max had to pass/go through during the race because they were 1 whole lap down. Max and Lewis were a whole lap ahead of quite a few cars basically (Lando, Alonso...). The whole controversy is that usually ALL of those lapped cars...- F1_Legal

VERY Controversial indeed. Crazy time to be a lawyer at Mercedes! As a neutral fan in terms of Max vs Lewis, I personally just enjoyed the last lap showdown. But what the FIA did in terms of 'bending the rules' to allow some unlapped cars through but not all of them was suspicious. The...- F1_Legal

Feeling Lost
Thought I would add, I was rejected for a vac scheme on Monday. It was the final step so it does suck how close it was to that vac. I personally took a day off away from applications altogether and I think that's definitely helped. Feedback will definitely be useful because think how much more...- F1_Legal
