    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    Honestly, I think they give unlimited tries for a reason, so it’s probably fine. That said, I tried to keep my attempts low because of what they mentioned in the email: "For video questions, you can re-record your response as many times as you like, but we do encourage you to not re-record too...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    Totally relatable that it took more attempts than expected! I had a similar experience—wasn’t fully satisfied with some of my answers, but ended up going with them anyway. Recently, I did another HireVue that allowed you to record three attempts, watch them back, and choose the best one...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    I felt like the time limit made it challenging to fully answer the questions. I also think my responses might not have been the best since I was conscious of sticking to a maximum of three attempts per question lol.

    I was wondering if anyone here has experience with the NBC Universal final round interviews for their legal internships. What should I expect, and do you have any tips? Also, has anyone gone through the HireVue process for the BBC Solicitor Apprenticeship or Training Contract? Any insights on...

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    Hey, It seems that the next step in the application process will be a video interview, assuming they’re satisfied with your written submission. There is no need to worry just yet—the deadline only just closed, so there’s still plenty of time for them to review everything.

    They are still sending VI invites out so I assume they are probably in the process of arranging the next AC's, not 100% sure though.

    Hello everyone, I have a quick question regarding video interviews. Is it okay to repeat some information from your cover letter when responding to questions from the firm? Thanks!

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    The purpose of these dinners isn't necessarily to 'report back to graduate recruitment,' since they often attend the dinners themselves. For example, when I went to a careers dinner with W&C, there were representatives from grad recruitment present. However, I think these dinners are mainly a...

    I received an immediate rejection from Clifford Chance after the Watson Glaser test. It's disappointing, especially knowing how much effort I put into my application for the Open Day, and knowing they did not even look at it. Oh well!

    Sorry, I should have been clearer! They said that all places for their assessment centres are now full, and that they received an unprecedented number of applications.

    Received a half rejection from Forsters. They say all places are filled for their summer vacation scheme, but they still want to consider me for a training contract, despite me not applying. I presume it is a generic email.
