2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion

Does anybody have any tips for the TV AC? Particularly in terms of interview questions and style?

Heya! May I ask when you applied / got an invitation to the AC? I completed the arctic shore test in January and was told I'd hear back by 19th Feb (which has now passed) and I still haven't heard anything?

I don't know if this helps but I did my arctic shores test last week and got the AC the morning after I completed the test!

Hi guys! I just finished the CRS VI, I had a few messages from others so thought it would be easier to respond here (@A92167!8 @chromaticaqueen @Hatice Yigitbas @Mollie Day )

SJT is fairly straightforward (although I am not confident in my answers ), very similar to the standard practice ones so nothing to worry about.

VI was straightforward, nothing too unexpected in Qs. You could only record once, but unlike some others they let you see the Q and have as long as you like to prepare. Which inevitably means I spent my whole evening on a few questions 🤣

Went ok for me, I would give myself 10/10 for hair and 6/10 for answers. Unfortunately as I had a sore throat and insisted on practising so much I was basically mute by the last one 😫

Also they have said they will get back within 1 month.

Thanks for this and great work on the hair! I did my VI yesterday and it was fine, as you say. Although I didn’t clock that we had unlimited time on the questions before clicking record (I thought it was a timer and it would pop up after a minute like they all do) so kind of pre-empted that - i.e giving myself only an actual minute and hitting record just in case. Damn! Had I known maybe I would’ve given better responses - oh well - at least it only took up 20 mins of my day and they got me in my truest light (panicky and breathy with average responses! 😂). Good luck!

did anyone ask NRF for their WG percentile?

In their e-mail, it says "Your results will remain strictly confidential and will only be seen by Norton Rose Fulbright recruitment team. All results will be stored in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)." -- does this means I can't request for my score?

Hey - did you get any email confirmation after you completed the WG?

Hey guys,

This is just a friendly reminder to be vigilant of anyone sending you a private message. Unless you know them personally, I would encourage you to be wary of the information you share, particularly if the person is asking for something very specific, makes comments that make you feel uncomfortable, or hints at meeting up before you know them well.

This doesn't apply to 99% of TCLA members, but we do receive occasional reports about particular users.

Jess and I will continue to make sure we're warning/restricting/banning any users who don't follow these guidelines, but I just want everyone to know that it's completely okay not to respond to someone via private message or shut them down if they are asking for something that makes you feel uncomfortable. If someone does, please don't hesitate to message one of us or hit the report button.

Best,

Jaysen
