TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

If someone is constantly applying to W&C (VS 2023/ TC 2023 and now Spring VS 24) and I reached twice the VI stage. What can I really change in my cover letter to look as a better candidate. In this short time frame, the only change that happened in my life is a vacation scheme in a silver circle firm, and I already mentioned this in my application for the direct TC last year.
Any thoughts or probably I should forget about W&C ?
Thanks.

Thanks.
Maybe change the bit about you and add something more recent you have done.
Clifford Chance TC “on hold” - how promising is this? Has anyone ever actually proceeded to the next stage after this result?
They probably mean that you just need to be just at a minimum in your penultimate-year of a law degree, but I would email GR and ask to be certain!
has anyone heard anything from Akin? haven't applied yet but i know it is rolling basis
Is it okay for me to have the same answer to an application question as last year? The question is 'what is your most ambitious achievement?'
I was and am really happy with my answer from last year, and can't think of anything better than that. The answer got me through to the vac scheme so I don't want to change it to an answer I don't like as much. However, I am worried that grad rec won't like to see the same answer. Any thoughts on this are much appreciated!

You could use the same example but just re-write parts of it so it is presented differently.
Has anybody applied to CMS just before the deadline and heard back?
I applied on the 2nd December and got WG invite last night
So what now, Stephenson Harwood are not going to conduct their winter vacation scheme or what. I havent heard anybody mention any interviews?
Same, nothing re. Spring or Summer schemes too
Annoyingly, my previous message has been deleted because I disclosed the CC video interview question, even though they disclose it to us well in advance! So it's no more of a secret than any other application question.
Back to the point - @Jessica Booker or anyone who can help - was hoping for help on why CC has emphasised 'in the region' in their video interview question. They mention it twice. Could you shed any light on how you would address this?
Sorry, but I cannot repeat the full question here, or it will likely be deleted again. DM me if you would like it. As ever, THANK YOU so very much.
