[QUOTE="VV, post: 156510, member: 30231"] Hi Axel and Jessica, Thank you for your input - much appreciated very helpful! I note the following from Jones Day FAQs; has it perhaps changed as they mention that they may sponsor a Skilled Worker Visa? Although of course, it is unclear if this extends to the Vacation Scheme itself. [B][I]Q. What is the process for international candidates?[/I][/B] [I]A: As with all applicants, international students will be assessed on merit, although clearly eligibility to work in the UK will need to be considered in the later stages of the selection process.

International students on a student visa (Tier 4) are eligible to attend our vacation schemes outside of term-time. From Summer 2021, Tier 4 visas can also be extended on the Graduate Route, allowing a further 2-years to live and work in the UK after graduation.
