    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    @jessicabooker for Withers' application, can I included informal shadowing and open days as part of work experience? Some firms expect this others do not. My application is basically ready to go I just need to make sure I can include those experiences if not I need to delete them.

    Please give details of your current interests and activities including the nature of your involvement (60 words max). Could my answer to this be about learning another language, because of my interest in culture and business developments in a specific region? @Jessica Booker @Amma Usman @Andrei Radu

    Does anyone know if it’s smart to apply to SH’s Direct TC even without much legal experience? Or if they do not really consider that.

    Is there anyone that applied to Eversheds Sutherland and passed the application phase that would be willing to send their answers to question? I want to see where I went wrong. I really liked my application for that firm, so now I'm second guessing all of my applications t. There is no feedback...

    Norton Rose Fulbright Question:

    As NRF is a global firm could I focus on how these sectors have the potential to grow in international markets and how NRF can contribute to that. If this question comes up on their training contract application I would want to talk about Tech and AI but if I focus on specific places that I am...

    SH’s why law and why the firm questions are both 600 words. Would it be necessary to format that with introductions and conclusions. 600 words is kind of long but I wouldn’t think it’s long enough for that. @Amma Usman @Jessica Booker

    I had this with DLA as well. On the bright side in the feedback was good and she said the partner that did my presentation interview said I should apply again. However, they may just say that to everyone.

    When did this even open? I have been looking for an open day on their website since September and there was nothing. I bit the bullet and just applied early without going to one hoping this would increase my chances.

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    I did the stupid thing of looking at my application after submitting it. I wrote furthermore at the start of two consecutive sentences. It just reads so odd. I hope that the rest of the application makes up for it but, it’s in the first question so they might just discard it before reading the...

    Is it worth mentioning a firms 96% retention rate as way to suggest they invest in their trainees and foster an environment where trainees want to stay on board? I’m not sure if that is too generic.

    What firm is this and why would this be an issue? I’m genuinely asking? As long as you mentioned why that excites you I’m not sure what the problem would be. I know a lot of firms have international secondments but, many don’t and if you mention other things specific about the firm I’m sure...

    I thought that would mean there is still a thresh hold but those who pass will have both their test scores and applications looked at. Also for their open day did you have to do an application or was it a first come first serve sort of thing?
