    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    The VI questions were just general motivations and understanding of Dechert; for the written exercise you can’t really prepare but It was only one task to do which was drafting an email to a client, my tip that I got would be to use informal language and italics/headings to make it more easier...

    First Year Open Days/Insight Schemes 2021/2022

    I think it will be like vacation scheme interviews, I can imagine they will ask why commercial/why Weil as motivational questions and then for commercial questions they will probably ask what our understanding of private equity is since they specialise in it. Then just general competency...
