TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

[g.cl.2020344]

I did my dechert assessment 15 oct but haven't heard back.. I emailed on Monday asking if they had an update and they responded saying sorry for the delay they will email me when they have an update.. should I email back to say thank you and I look forward to hearing back? or should I leave it and wait?

Simmons PFO bc they are ''at capacity'' and ''can't transfer my application to another scheme'' 😢

which scheme is this?

What test do they use? Sorry to hear.

They use watson glaser!

I wouldn't worry about structure here - I would just present the facts of any exams/modules you had to resit, when they happened, and if you passed the second after the resit, with any final grade and capped score.

Thanks Jessica, I ultimately followed what you’ve just wrote, and then explained in the mitigating circumstances section as to the details.

has anyone heard re W&C Open day for 14 November and 21 November?

I assume, like me, no one has still heard about either. I guess I should assume rejection for the first date?

got a WG invite for HG Lift Off !

Hi is this automatic?

 

[RSK]

does anyone know when w&c will respond post-ac? its been so long lol

Hey, if you don't mind me asking, when did you do yours?

 

[moo]

Anyone still waiting on a & o summer scheme?

 

[bangarangbass39]

lol the HL WVS starts in less than a month now - 2nd December - Has anyone heard back post WG? Surely this isn’t enough time to conduct ACs get responses out and do onboarding?

Tell us about a situation where you have demonstrated initiative and the result? - in a question on application like this where there it is limited to 300 words, is it worth briefly putting a sentence in about something I could have done differently and why?

I completed the Dechert assessment today and it was quite challenging with the time constraints but I had the thought that maybe some individuals might have used AI to help since there wasn't a camera feature. I didn't but I wonder do firms detect that thoroughly?

 

[EK_27]

Has anyone heard back from the NRF Black Aspiring Lawyers open day yet? It’s next Thursday, is it likely I’ve been rejected considering the time frame?
