[QUOTE="Ram Sabaratnam, post: 200111, member: 36738"] Hiya [USER=38066]@lawaspirant21[/USER] I think this really depends on the firm, but securing a training contract without a vacation scheme is definitely possible, although it can be a bit trickier without any legal experience at all. Most people I know who’ve successfully secured a TC without a vacation scheme have done so after gaining some paralegal experience. Two close colleagues of mine secured training contracts at Baker McKenzie and RPC without vacation scheme experience, but both had been paralegals for nearly a year before applying. If you're aiming for direct TC applications, I’d highly recommend trying to gain some relevant experience, whether as a paralegal or in related roles. Even business services, compliance, or regulatory roles can provide valuable experience that firms look upon favourably. Wishing you the best of luck with your applications! [/QUOTE]
