[QUOTE="Andrei Radu, post: 195256, member: 36777"] It seems the VS and TC applications are separate, but I doubt they are completely independent. I do not have specific information for Withers but when I was doing my VS at Slaughter and May, they had a similar system with a separate TC application. That essentially meant two things. Firstly, our 'performance' in the VS was significantly less important for the purposes of conversion. In fact, we were told that the VS itself was not assessed and was just meant to give us the most authentic experience of life at the firm. Our supervisors had to fill in a sheet about us but unless someone showed a terrible attitude, that was basically a tick box. Secondly, we had to submit a new application for a TC during the vacation scheme, but we were told everyone is guaranteed a place in the final stage interview. But after the interview, decisions would be made with no regard to the VS. [/QUOTE]
