Hoping to hear from more firms about VS plans next week, following tonight’s announcement
Cleary Gottlieb has decided to cancel its two summer vacation schemes due to take place in June and July this year. The email stresses that the firm is still hoping to be able to provide an in-person vacation scheme during 2020 (with no indication as to the timeframe). Further updates will be given "at the end of the summer period".
NRF moved to three-day-long schemes in September. Currently no guarantee of payment.
The schemes will be done virtually in September!Hi, are these virtual or in person schemes?
Hi everyone, I've not heard anything regarding my VS due to start in just over a couple weeks. Is it too pushy to email HR to ask for an update?
interesting. I wonder if they will wait to offer those vac schemers TCs until winter then
A lot of firms fund the GDL and LPC retrospectively anyway but given this is entirely out of students' control I would expect a lot of firms to pay back any tuition regardless of what their policy is on retrospective fee payingFor vac schemes where a live element will take place in winter instead of summer, any ideas how this would work with participants planning to start the GDL in September? Would the firms potentially pay back that Year 1 tuition to those they offer a TC? Or is that just a hit everyone will have to take?
