TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

[Mug Fan]

Just received a VI for W&C Summer Vac! For context, I applied for their WVS in September and I'm only hearing back now. If anyone is in a similar position to me, don't lose hope🫶

Congrats, I just got one for DTC. Can I ask how you interpret the deadline for the VI? Is it 72 hours from the time they sent the email? Am I being dense?

Hi guys! Does anyone have a good template for memos?
Both internal and for clients. Those I've found online aren't free 😭

I'm going to play it safe and assume that the timer starts from the time they sent the email.

Hey guys, does anyone have any tips or insights into the AG AC (London)? Any advice would be much appreciated

 

[pleasepleaseplease]

Freshfields have now changed their name to just Freshfields rather than Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer and so it is fine to use this.

Thank you! Please could you also advise on this?

Also is it worth applying to Freshfields if I have a mid 2:1? (I have two modules with high 2:2s from first and second year, and I am currently in my final year)

May I know when you passed VI and when you received AC invite? I passed VI early December for the Manchester office but still have not heard back

 

[mmm918]

Are you waiting for AC invite? I passed VI in early Dec but have not heard back since. There is a holding response at the end of last year though

I still have the Simmons test to do, but with how rolling they are would it be more worth my time to focus on something else, or is there still any chance if I complete it?
