I wouldn't write it off yet honestly, I got my Weil VI one week after everyone else did so anything is possibleSame but I didn't get a VI invite so guess its a PFO
Congrats, I still haven't heard after first round of tests. How early did you apply / complete test and Job sim?

Draughting is not the correct term for writing something. Although draughting is the correct UK English spelling, it has various meanings but none are association with writing. Most of the definitions relate to the movement or air or liquid.
Hopeful for 2025 - Honestly TCLA has been a Godsend, a blessing with so much useful guidance and support.
I applied for 1 VAC scheme with DLA and managed to secure a place on the summer internship - hopefully, a TC to come.
I accepted an offer and contract for a paralegal role at an international firm.
I hope everyone reaches their goal and target.

Hi I completed mine on the 20th December!When did you complete the job simulator?
AG voice interview invite!
Congrats on the AG voice interview
Do you think I applied too late ( 23/11, completed tests - 11/12, heard nothing after )
Thank you.Hi I completed mine on the 20th December!
Congrats on the AG voice interview
Ah, okay, I did mine on the 18th 😭.
I've been struggling securing a paralegal position, despite applying to a lot of firms. Do you mind if I private messaged you for advice on these applications?
Hi TCLA Team! Welcome back
I got an invite to the Kirkland VI (received it 2/01, applied on 31/12), and wanted to know what I can do to prepare for the motivational aspect of the question. I read through @Andrei Radu's guide for competency interview preparation already!
I understand it is 1 to 1.5 minutes long, and historically, all of my points have taken longer than that to articulate it. Furthermore, I find Kirkland attractive for 2 practice areas and its diversity, but the time limit suggests that 3 points would be difficult to articulate. My general structure is Point-CV Evidence-Analysis of Evidence-Firm specific interest-link. I am not sure if this being too long is the issue, but would love to know what I can do to ensure I get a cohesive answer to Kirkland!
Other than that, articulating and tone wise, is there anything I can do to make my answer better?
Thank you in advance!
