    Assessment Centre

    Hi I have an AC coming up and I would like to ask if anyone knows where to practice a written exercise. The closest I have on mind is Forage virtual internships. It would be great if you could share what the exercise is about eg. finding errors, summarising, cross-referencing? I saw that some...

    Introducing Myself - TCLA Commercial News Discussions

    Hi Jake, I hope to raise your attention with this post. I tried to reach you via the premium chatroom. I was invited to the AC at one of the firms that specialised in energy and transport, to be specific, shipping finance. The issue is, my interest (hence commercial awareness) is developed in...

    Weekly Discussion on Wednesday?

    Hi Jake, may I ask you when is the commercial awareness discussion? I may be wrong. I was under the impression that it is a weekly routine every Wednesday where we have a webinar or an in-depth discussion about a topic. The thread that I found really helpful was the one that discussed the impact...

    Finding Paralegal Roles

    Hi, I may need some advice. I am looking for paralegal roles through recruiters. I've sent my CV to a bunch of recruiters, tried email, tried to personalise my message to them, highlighted the fact that I'm a TC applicant and got invited to interview (which demonstrated my commercial acumen). I...

    Norton Rose Fulbright Training Contract Application 2025

    Oh no I kept it around 2 mins and just a little over. 3-4 sentences is advice from a trainee, I supposed he meant a long sentence. For me when I practice my TI, I will keep a timer on to make sure I don't start rambling. Also, when it comes to commercial awareness questions, I also made sure to...

    Norton Rose Fulbright Training Contract Application 2025

    So kind of you to share, hope this helps those who have not completed it. I still have not heard back, which is worrying! May I know how many days did you wait? Also, do you mind sharing the reasons you think you were unsuccessful? I hope this question isn't too intrusive! Did they give you...

    Norton Rose Fulbright Training Contract Application 2025

    Hi Kevin, thanks for sharing this! I did my TI, I think it went well (I did the best I could). I have a question for those who have completed theirs. Did they ask you any technical questions or more than one commercial awareness question? For those who have not completed your TI, my experience...

    Commercial Awareness session on 9 Aug

    Hi TCLA staff! I missed the amazing discussion on the Vodafone deal, I wonder if there's a recording that's accessible for people who are unable to attend due to work commitments? Thank you so much!

    How to respond: if a firm can set up another firm, where do you recommend?

    Hi all, I have an interview coming up. I understand the title question is quite common for global firms with 30+ offices. I understand that they're trying to test you on your knowledge of the firm, where are their offices, and what sectors they operate in, but does anyone who has come across...

    Norton Rose Fulbright Training Contract Application 2025

    Hi I hope this is helpful to other members. I passed both tests and there were ways to prep for them. First one being jobtestprep, I bought two packages, WG and AS and I must say it's very helpful. AS in particular, they mirror the real games almost at 90%. The con is the price. Second...

    Video Interview with Watson Farley

    Hi, I was recently invited to complete a video interview with Watson Farley. I've never done a video interview before so I'd appreciate any tips. I'm aware about eye contact, enthusiasm etc. I am quite concern with the type of questions they will ask. Are you tested on commercial awareness and...

    Watson Glaser Technical Issue

    Dear member, I came across a technical issue whilst completing a WG test. Basically, the page refreshed when there are 7 mins left and all my answers were gone. I reached out to the test provider to ask help, they were kind to help me reset the test. I completed it again the night itself. I...

    Arctic Shores Psychometric Test

    Hi, I've been invited to complete an Arctic Shore test. Their website does not provide an overview of what to expect. Just task-based questions, I'm assuming some games, similar to Ashurst. If anyone has completed them please let me know your experience, that'd be great! Thank you and I...
