TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

Hi, would anyone who has done the BCLP interview be able to offer some advice? Any help would be greatly appreciated

What kinds of questions do Eversheds ask in interviews? They seem to place a lot of emphasis on teamwork. Should I just look at their practice areas, recent deals? Really not sure what to expect!

Has anyone done a Taylor Wessing AC? First in-person AC in years next week so any tips would be really appreciated!

Linklaters have around 100 trainees a year and 100 internship opportunities.

Not everyone is going to meet the standard the firm expects, some people are not going to be right for the firm/the firm isn’t right for them, and some people will decline offers for other firms. So 70% of trainees having been vac schemers is actually very healthy figure.

Thank you!

Received a half rejection from Forsters. They say all places are filled for their summer vacation scheme, but they still want to consider me for a training contract, despite me not applying. I presume it is a generic email.

Sorry I'm confused..? The ACs for the summer vacation scheme haven't all happened?

I don’t think that is a generic email. They won’t be sending that to everyone.

Sorry, I should have been clearer! They said that all places for their assessment centres are now full, and that they received an unprecedented number of applications.

I just got my rejection 2 days ago but I only did an application (did not do any tests or Vi) in case that's helpful.
