    I'm gonna finish it in time for when I received it on tuesday - an absolute pain as I'll be squeezing it around work- but I think the system works on calendar days? rather than by hour?

    Very easy to self-criticise after an interview. I've had two ACs, one for a vac and one for a TC, where I was absolutely convinced I bombed it. I'd kick myself over things I'd said and micro-analyse my entire performance. Wasn't worth it- I ended up getting very positive feedback and told that I...

    If it's any consolation, they rejected me for the first-year workshop 3 years ago because I didn't meet the psychometric test benchmark. Haven't forgiven them since.

    I think so, though TCLA is a minute proportion of the number of applicants competing for vac schemes. We simply have no idea whether the 1000s who applied to A&O have heard back yet. Another consensus is that A&O's response times have been inconsistent. Lots of people at different stages of the...

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

    Really just depends on the context of the interview imo.
