TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

[Jessica Booker]

@Jessica Booker @axelbeugre hi guys!! would love some insight on this. If I applied to a firm last cycle and made it to the AC but was rejected based on feedback regarding my case study, would it be good to reference how I have developed since the previous application?

I personally recommend doing this - tackling head on any concerns as to how you have developed since the last application/recruitment process I think shows self-awareness reflection and pursuit of development, all great things to demonstrate in an application no matter when you are applying.

Are Linklater WG results automatically sent out or do they need to be requested?
