    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    … did we need to stick to the limit? Do they track us? 😭 Ngl I did about eight for the second VI, I’m a perfectionist 😂

    Great! No worries, it took me about an hour to an hour and 15mins :)

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    Has anyone else applied to the BBC Level 7 Solicitors Apprenticeship? I did the VI and written question yesterday and have mixed feelings about how I did, so I was wondering what other people thought! (P.S, please don't PM me asking about the questions. I always say I don't share the questions...

    I got to VI. They did say in their email that they would welcome an app from me after the six month period, but they might say that to everyone. Best of luck in getting past AC! I hope it works out for you :)

    W&C and PwC rejections today... Has anyone heard about the Cooley Open Day yet? They said we'll be hearing back by today. Bad news often comes in threes, but I'm hoping that won't be the case this time!

    @Amma Usman Sorry, I'm sure you've already been asked this, but is there any chance you could talk about what you felt made your application for Gibson Dunn stand out? Is there any opportunities you've taken that you thought really interested them/gave you an advantage? Thank you!

    Congrats on your apps! Can I ask what you've applied for in relation to S&C? I was under the impression that graduates could only apply for their TC, not the VS, but I might have read it wrong!

    I'm not Jessica, but I've always put something similar I've done down as an extra-curricular :)

    If anyone else has this same issue, I solved it by creating a new application with a different email address. A bit strange it doesn't like my email address and now I need to remember to check my other account, but at least my app is in!

    Is anyone else unable to submit their application for the Cooley Open Day? It keeps on saying my application data cannot be found. I have emailed GR, but I'm pretty nervous as the deadline is tomorrow!

    Has anyone heard from PwC post-VI or know when we might hear?

    It's pretty different. The practice test they provide on the email will give you more insight

    I'm pretty sure it's automatic, I just completed mine. Before you do, I really recommend doing the practice test they have in their email - it's quick and gives a good insight into the test (which isn't one I've encountered before).

    Thank you. I did the test on 26/09 and received the interview invite on 14/10. I wish you all the best with your app :)

    I did not, in fact, blow their socks off as I got a PFO today :( On the bright side, GR have said we can contact them for feedback, so hopefully this experience will help me for future interviews.

    I found it alright, can't really tell how I did tbh. I had to ask the interviewers to repeat the questions twice to make sure I hit all the points, and I felt like I repeated myself a bit for the motivations... So, it could have gone better but it wasn't a complete disaster either.
