Easier to do when you get the VS.Does anyone have experience with requesting to change from WVS to SVS?
I know it varies firm to firm but just generally speaking I'm wondering how common this is or if its a bit of a long shot.

I went last year and I remember hearing back a few days before the deadline, so they certainly look at it before the closing date.Does anyone know if Baker McKenzie’s open day applications have rolling deadlines?
Thank you so muchI went last year and I remember hearing back a few days before the deadline, so they certainly look at it before the closing date.
I did this method last year and got ACs for every vac scheme I applied for but none of the direct TCs. Ttake from that what you will but I think you are massively disadvantaged going through the direct route for just about every firm except the magic circle (who are ridiculously hard to get through for so not exactly a safe bet). This year I'm taking the L and applying for vac schemes too and will just have to use all my annual leave up on interviews/schemes if I get them.Hey guys, I am one year post grad- took a gap year and have been paralegaling for about 2 months now. i am looking to apply for straight TC's as I can't get enough days off my job to attend vac schemes. Not sure if I will be disadvantaging myself doing this as I know alot of firms hire through vac schemes. Applying for around 5 firms and doing about 2-3 hours of research per firm before drafting my application. Does this sound like a good plan of action? Intrigued on peoples thoughts!
