    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Hi, I thought it wasn't rolling either. But there doesn't seem to be anything online confirming that, so probably safer to apply sooner rather than later!

    Hi - does anyone know the dates of the Kirkland vac scheme? As in what exact weeks do they take place in Spring and Summer? I can't seem to find the info anywhere.

    I wouldn't stress too much. I had an overall low 2.1 in second year and managed to secure TC offers from both an MC firm and a US firm. Still worth an application!

    Is a SWOT/Pestle analysis for M&A case studies generally liked by firms? It's a concept I originally came across in like GCSE Business, so worried it may be seen as overly-simplistic? Also is there one that firms tend to prefer out of the two approaches? Would appreciate your thoughts @Jessica...

    most people dont seem to have even heard for Spring yet, so it may be a while.

    Thanks. How did you get in contact with Vantage? I haven't submitted it yet thankfully, but would be good to check with them if they can fix it so I can submit sooner rather than later.

    Did you reach out to the firm and explain? Not really sure what to do tbh @Jessica Booker do you have any advice?

    these are horrible im so sorry. Vantage needs to sort this out because candidates missing out because of a technical error on their part is beyond unfair.

    Does anyone have any experience with Vantage where the 'work experience' section has gone missing? I filled out all the sections for it yesterday and ready to submit today, but looking at my app now, there's no work experience section?

    No, but I am in my second year and achieved a range of high 2.1s last year. This year I have achieved mid-firsts in my formatives and so I think it could help my application if graduate recruitment can see the development/upward trajectory if that makes sense? They're also a lot more recent and...

    @Jessica Booker what is your opinion on including formative grades in our applications alongside our summative grades if we make it clear that they are formatives? I have scored some high results in my exams this year (better than last year) and I think they give a better picture of where I...
