TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

[lilysmithson]

Got an invite to do a vi last Saturday with 7 days to complete. Does that mean that I have the entirety of tomorrow to do it, or will the link expire at the exact time that it was sent last week???

 

[EliteWhovian]

Anyone got a rejection from Latham & Watkins for either spring or summer vac scheme?
I am starting to feel hopeless

I haven't heard any reply since the capp assessment so im also feeling hopeless loss

Hey does anyone know if either of the Mayer Brown online tests include why the firm/commercial awareness/ competency elements?

Just SJT and verbral reasoning, etc. No video what so ever.

 

[Chouette]

Oh dear, Debevoise sent the invitations to quite a few people here… did they sent all the invitations the same say last year?

 

[SCM]

Hi guys - does anyone have any advice for the Bakers VI?

 

[lik0401]

Cooley WG! finally hahah

 

[Autotunedbird]

Just chased CMS re my VI and they said that they filled all their AC spots. They are waiting with sending out rejections in case anyone drops out of the AC.

Very disappointing because I sent my app before other people who have progressed more quickly...

What! That's so disappointing because I'm also waiting and I haven't done the WGT yet

I hear you - I was hoping for one too! Just asking to see if they were all sent at the same time haha

 

[mdoeslaw]

Tbh I’m not sure, a lot of people were waiting on this forum but not many said they got the WG. but maybe the firm is just really competitive!

Yeah I would expect it to be extremely competitive, but usually there are a few on the forum who come through with a WG. I managed to get to the WG round 2 years ago and I remember getting it a few hours after some people on this forum did, so here’s to hoping hahah

 

[Adrian_S]

Got Cooley WG about 40 mins ago I really hope more people hear back today

I got the Cooley WG at just gone 7 Fingers crossed for everyone else

I think that was the cut...

Gosh, really hope Addleshaw Goddard send out more VI's. Hate the fact I set my heart on certain firms like CMS and AG but I applied really late into the cycle for them to try to improve my applications.

Rolling deadlines can be brutal!

Maybe..hahah

congratulations to everyone who made it to the Cooley WG!
