    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    I want to ask, for TCs stationed in the middle east like CMS Dubai, do we have to be an Arab national to apply? Do they people who are not a middle-east national. I can read and write in arabic, though I am not a national, if that helps.

    Since the direct tc of baker mckenzie has a deadline of April 1st, I was wondering when would the rest of the assessments take place after that if selected and will they all be online and usually how many steps are there before securing a long contract. These are not written step by step in...

    Can someone pls clarify From what I've heard is that the firms who have sjt assessments are the ones to run SPAG test on the application first and then sent sjt invites to selected one and after passing the sjts they're going to have a look at your application. Is this true or valid in any way?

    Anyone received stephenson harwood sjt invite yet? Haven't heard back from them after application. Was curious to know when do they send them out usually since they're on a rolling basis and has anyone already received them yet?

    And as expected just received PFO for PW. So surprised to see many people with higher scores receiving it. What do they want?

    Had anyone who applied for CRS in November received VI? Shall I consider this a PFO as I'm not familiar with how CRS processes this but can anyone who's familiar with it confirm whether CRS sends all the invites at one go for a particular area?

    It's not like bad. I mean even if you answer all the scenarios correctly or get most of them correct you could still score low on those 4 pillars based on your choices even if they are the correct ones and your efficiency while answering. I know these don't make sense at all but it is what it is...

    Same here. This amberjack test doesn't help, if anything it makes matters worse. If the employers rely heavily on that rather than their own analyzation and judgement, its going be terrible. I got 6 3 4 4. I think I probably bombed with these scores while I excelled verbal, but I am just as...
