TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

yeah I think the ship has sailed w W&C which is such a shame cos I applied so early and really liked them... Yeah who knows how HL will go cos I did their WG assesment but idk if I passed it

For W&C, if you haven't heard back at all post application, it most likely means that all winter spots have been filled. However, they'll consider your application for the spring and summer schemes (if you placed them in the preference order list). - I asked a recruiter about it..

Ropes & Gray: Describe three characteristics that you believe make an outstanding Ropes & Gray lawyer and how that lawyer would drive our business. (500 words max) Does this question require answering why I am suited as a Ropes & Gray lawyer? Some general advise will also be appreciated. Thanks! @Andrei Radu @Ram Sabaratnam
