I have very little commercial or legal experience since I've only just finished university, and I felt like this held me back...

    TCLA General Discussion Thread #2 (2021)

    This especially happens with open days. I've found that attending an open day almost always means my VS/TC app will be rejected, whereas I always manage to get to AC with firms I've never spoken to in my life
