TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

If you have not heard from Dentons, should we assume it's a PFO?

 

[blopclop]

Anyone heard back from WFW post AC?

Well... this pretty much marks the end of the cycle for direct TC applications.

Well done to everyone for pushing through!
Wishing you all the best of luck with the firms you're waiting on.

Submitted my PH application, only lets you put 4 work experiences down? Feel like that really weakens my application

as people have gotten AC offers from TLT should we assume PFO

I’m not sure. Maybe they have numerous ACs ? Fingers crossed …

 

[lawbear123]

Applied to Slaughters on 26th June and still nothing - is it too early to call and ask about the app?

@Jessica Booker Is it good form to send a thank you emails after interviews?

 

[Deleted member 9747]

at the end of what I thought was a final stage tc interview the partner mentioned he might get a couple of us back for a coffee as the actual final round.

Trying to read into this.. not sure if I was a little too nervous and they felt they couldn’t tell if I’d be a good fit

I wouldn’t, think it can only be viewed as a negative and has little up side

Plenty of people do this, and plenty of people don't. It is highly unlikely to influence the outcomes from the assessments. However, I think it is generally a polite and nice thing to do.

If you do email (and don't worry to those who have not in the past, its really not that important), keep the email short/concise and focused.

Sometimes people get a bit too overzealous with the amount of things they are saying thank you for or take it as an opportunity to try and re-emphasise their motivations or try to apologise/compensate for weaker interview questions.

Just to mention I will be closing this thread after today and any new posts can be put in the 2024-25 thread I have just created.
