    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    Strangely they spammed me with 7 emails saying exactly the same thing, which by the way does not make sense because I already applied and did the test (which they say we will have to do again if successful on the 7th of Jan... really confused, anyone has a take on this?? 😂 😂 😂 ) "Hi [...]...

    No no, it's way too early to determine if it's a PFO for HSF summer: 1) I haven't seen anyone receive an AC invite for the summer 2) They might start sending out AC invites for Spring; summer seems a tiny bit too early (probably end of Jan...) 3) I also applied fo the summer and passed the...

    anyone heard back from Simmons & Simmons since the VI for the summer vacation scheme... Has anyone got an invite for an AC? Strangely, on LinkedIn, there's a person who already got offered an Summer VS in November, but other than that, haven't heard anything.

    Is it ok if we use abbreviations for firms while writing cover letters or answers to questions... For instance, is it ok if we say "White & Case" once and then the subsequent ones employ the abbreviation "W&C", or do they mind? Other examples, HL for Hogan Lovells, S&C for Sullivan & Cromwell...

    Yes, the next stage is an AC I think.. On their website, they call it "selection day" (https://www.eversheds-sutherland.com/en/united-kingdom/careers/careers-page/students-and-recent-graduates/recruitment): "The recruitment process for both the vacation scheme and training contract comprises...

    Sadly no, they actually review on rolling basis. Kind of shocked that I did not hear from them yet, considering I applied on the 6th of October, and I completed their online virtual work experience program... + have a dual degree in English and French Law from a UoL... with 1 month internship at...

    Honestly, depends on what year you are... if you're a penultimate student then just wait for the next cycle, because your chances are extremely slim (+ you would have to ace your Watson Glaser unimaginably in order for them to actually look at your application (I personally think)); and then you...

    If you don't mind me asking, when did you apply and when did you receive the test? I applied on the deadline sadly (close to the deadline); do you think there's a chance?
