TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4
I personally do not think this is entirely true. I think direct training contracts are open to everyone but a lot of people applying are working candidates in law or in other sectors so I would not worry too much about it.- axelbeugre

Application advice queries
Hey @TCinpipeline, I can totally relate to your situation. When I was applying last year I felt like it would have been very difficult to actually and genuinely express why I was interested in commercial law, especially as a non-law student. Some tips that I would give you based on your...- axelbeugre

It is, especially if you have a compelling reasons as to why you want to know the results soon. I would email only if you have issues with other offers received or visa issues if you are an international student.- axelbeugre

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24
I think that it might be too late for that as you probably should have contacted them before the assessment. Making you do another assessment after the handwritten one might not be fair for the other candidates too so I personally would not email them about this. I am sure your handwriting is...- axelbeugre

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4
It is not necessary to use it if you have nothing to say. I personally used to use it as an opportunity to show my academic ability and so I used to talk about academic prizes and scholarships I won from high school to my master degree and that worked really well. However, if I did not have...- axelbeugre

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4
You can always email a firm and tell them your circumstances and more often than not they will accommodate you and carry the assessment centre online for you. Law firms are pretty understanding when it comes to things like that so I personally would not worry too much about this. If you get an...- axelbeugre

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4
Chances are they are very busy this time of the year. I would personally email them one more time but after that I would not email again. I would wait for the results on their end. I understand the frustration of waiting to hear back and when I was applying last year I was emailing to ask for...- axelbeugre

What I would do with this question is: Describe your current situation: whether you are working, studying, doing a master, working part-time or full time, anything of this nature. This will ensure that whoever is reading knows at what stage of your career/life you are. Secondly, I would...- axelbeugre
