    TCLA General Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Hi, I have a gap year between now and my SQE and I was wondering if TCLA is still hiring? I noticed there are a few positions open but since it’s been posted over a month ago I am unsure if it is still going on. If it is I would love to apply, thanks!

    Got a call that I received a TC offer from a firm I really like! It hasn’t been the smoothest journey esp after all the rejections + worrying abt my 2nd year grades and my visa situation as an international student but I’m so grateful for all the guidance and motivation from the TCLA forum and...

    Thank you! I’m asking as I was planning to apply for jobs now that I’m graduating. I know it’s hard to say, But Would it be safe to say I would be able to apply for 6 or 9 month internships/full-time positions starting September 2023?

    Probably fine? Not sure what your firm is so can’t say for certain, but I’ve done it bfr once by accident and it was still accepted.

    Yep try again in third year. I got rejected from everything in 2nd year but managed to get a VS in 3rd year. I did more apps and definitely improved myself interview and application wise tho using the experience I had in 2nd year. You got this! 💪

    Does anyone know how Baker gets back to ppl post AC? Like do they call for both offer and rejection? Or email rejections but call for offers?

    Lol fieldfisher finally replied nearly 2 months after I did the test, but it’s to say they already filled up the vacancies (unsurprisingly). Guess they follow the rolling part rly strictly.

    Hey, I have a similar question. Say that two VS overlap slightly (like few days), what are the odds the law firm of e.g the first VS will allow me to miss those last few days?

    Hey, I answered the same ques for the VS app. Pretty sure you can answer as you want as long as you're clear about how it could be relevant to them. But I wrote about a trend and got through to the next stage, so I know that works at least. Dentons is both polycentric and swiss verein...
