TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

[DieHard]

Does anyone have any tips for the W&C Ac? It’s my first one ever and I’m not sure how to go about the written exercise or what to expect. Thanks so much! @axelbeugre @Jessica Booker

Just be concise and ensure you spend some time organising your thoughts beforehand. It's not massively complicated tbh, more about time management

The confirmation email just says end of March, I did email them about something else but they haven’t replied yet. Here’s hoping they’re just busy reading our apps🤓

I emailed them on 5th Feb for follow-up but they sent me an automated email saying they will not answer any questions about the application progress. Then they ghosted me since.

Its time to make some direct TC applications for the first time. IDK why but it feels so daunting, I feel way out of my depth as opposed to a VS.

 

[yxngd2x]

Has W&C invited anyone to partner interview for summer VS or just spring

Congratulations ! Did you receive your AC invitation today ? And when did you take your VI please ?

 

[LehmanBrothersRiskManagementIntern]

Shearman pfo, but they encouraged me to reapply. I guess everyone received the same email?

Moreover, reapply when lol, as they are merging with A&O

 

[ljms]

Shearman PFO. I was also encouraged to re-apply.

I'm guessing that's a generic message, though.

 

[Apple]

I just got a second PFO email from Shearman, cmon guys I understood the first time.
