    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Hi guys, Left my Clifford Chance TC due to personal reasons and took some time away from law. Thinking of coming back into the industry and Wiggin and Harbottle are at the top of my list. Does anyone know when Harbottle TC applications open? / Does anyone have experience with Wiggin? Thanks!

    They typically advise that you spend 5-10 minutes on it and I feel like that is enough time - I think I only wrote about a paragraph or two - hope this helps!

    As I'm writing this I can't believe it. CC just called me and offered me a TC. I don't know what else to say - I'm in disbelief. if you have any specific questions let me know and I'll try my best but I'm really really freaking out right now. Thank you to everyone on this site that has ever...

So far, I've studied their pieces of the China's Belt and Road Initiative, The AI Act, ESG and The UK's National Security and Investments act - I know some...

    Hi! I passed the WG! They said they’ll let me know next steps but I think the assessment centre is either the 17th or 24th of January - need to start preparing!

    Hey guys (sorry for posting so often about this), CC asked me to notify them once I had taken my WG. I took it on the 14th and on the 15th they said I should hear back the same day (15th) or the day after. I still haven't heard anything - how long should I leave it before I chase?

    Completed my WG test for CC 2023 TC yesterday - They told me to email them once I had completed it, does anyone know when I'm likely to hear back? I'm sure I've heard that some people hear back the next day but I'm not sure - keeping my fingers crossed for a quick response

    Hi guys - I wrote on here earlier about an upcoming interview with CC for an IT role. Unfortunately I did not get the role but I was offered an invite to the 2023 training contract assessment center (conditional on me passing the watson glaser test). I just wanted to know: - How common this was...

    Hi, I’m not entirely sure if this is the correct place to post this but I can’t find it in any forums online.

    Hi, for those who received their log in details for the Ashurst platform in advanced of the assessment center - did you fill out all the information on your page? I'm not sure if I should add a picture and a bio?

    I also just got a confirmation email with no link, so you're not alone - I imagine they would either send you the link nearer the time or you would have to log into their portal perhaps

    Hi, I was wondering if someone could help clear something up for me regarding the Ashurst AC/Interview. On their website it says that the application process is an interview with HR and an associate, then a short case study followed by an interview with two partners. However, in the email sent...

    Hi, I've also got an invite - from what I have seen online so far - the written case study is something akin to a 'business report' - I don't know what that is but that's a term I always see crop up when researching the ashurst AC
