Upcoming 2022 TCs [Success]
- Thread starter Charles
- Start date
I was thinking of this but I read somewhere that they rarely ever give out direct TC offers. Cause their intake is so small, they give out most, if not all of their TC spaces, to vac scheme students. So I think it might increase your chances to apply to the vac scheme instead of the straight TC
Great point I read that to but chose to ignore it because they did say most of their TC come from their VS but not all their TCs come from the VS. So I would like to have a shot
I was thinking this also as someone said it about Skadden in the same post. I then contacted Skadden to ask about the situation and they said basically the direct TCs all depend on how many people they take from vac schemes. So I don't even think it's a case of looking through direct one and seeing which are good first but more okay well we filled all 12 places from vac schemes so no longer needed to look at direct TC apps?
Has anyone else got any thoughts about that?
But @Charles , I will apply to Kirkland also. Not yet started it though!

Hey being honest I know there's still time to apply for Kirkland but I think I have given up on that venture lol [i may try again but its one of those apps I do not look forward to getting to].
However, in other news I did get an invitation for a Baker online test. I have also applied to White & Case, Withers and Latham. Something has to stick
Sorry this is late and I went MIA but life moves on. Anyone has any good news to share please feel free, or doubts or whatever sharable (let us encourage one another, the training route is not an easy one).

The lawyer, their graduate website and personal experience. It is easy to check

Just simply check their websites. It is the first thing you should consider when applying for a tc
Actually it seems like this is the case. While the firms would have a tc application link, somewhere on their website they would actually say that 'they recruit only from their VS or they recruit mostly from their vs'
Guys,
This is the link to know the deadline for direct 2022 tc apps

Hello Guys following from last time: I did my Baker online test and I have moved to the next stage - the video interview (anyone that has tips please do share - I need them). If there's anyway we can help one another it would be nice if we took such step. if anyone wants me to read their app or something I am more than happy to do so.
Completed the VI today
The questions were decent ( I cannot emphasize how key preparation is)
How will politics affect business in the current climate
How do you establish credibility quickly when you enter a new department
A setback that you have experienced and how you dealt with it
How difficult was it when you were a team member and not a team leader how did you deal with it
Tell us something that will describe your personality
