I've tested positive for covid today and my in-person vac scheme starts a week today. At what point should I email them and tell them/ask what happens if I'm still testing positive in a week?
Email them and ring them up just to confirm this as it can be an error it happened to me with 2 lawv firms this year and appatrently their IT systems got hacked. Just chase them up to confiorm if this is correct.I’ve been accepted onto a vacation scheme without being invited to any tasks such as further tests, interviews, or assessment centres beyond the application stage. Should I be concerned hahahaha
I’d ring them up tomorrow and have them confirm via email. Chances are you’ll be able to join, worst case scenario you’re delayed by a few days. I’m sure they’ve accounted for that in a post-COVID world. Just give them sufficient notice that they can help make arrangements for a possible WFH start and follow up again on Friday.I've tested positive for covid today and my in-person vac scheme starts a week today.

Is it a temp/contract paralegal role or a permanent role?Hiya, just a quick one. I am writing a TC application for a firm in which I have successfully been offered a paralegal position which I am to start in August. Are there any tips on how to incorporate this upcoming position in a 'why are you applying to us' application q?

@TC fiend I think has given you fantastic advice for this issue @rose0904. Let us know what you choose to do and how it goes 🚀I've tested positive for covid today and my in-person vac scheme starts a week today.

Hey @Ameliaa,Thank you so much for the advice and sharing your experience @George Maxwell!
I have emailed Graduate Recruitment informing them of the mistake and asked them if it would be possible to make the alteration
It will be fine to include it then - sometime you have to tread carefully if you are trying to apply for another job when you haven’t even started the one you have got.Its a FTC role
I know there are plenty of people who have done this in the forums - it’s come up in conversation many times.Out of curiosity has anyone applied for and got a vac scheme whilst being employed at another firm? how did your employer handle it? as there could be conflicts and clauses in employment contracts that could restrict being able to do so
If there is nothing in either contract, then there is nothing stopping you from doing this. You may need to disclose the other firm's opportunity as part of conflict checks outside of any contractual terms. However, it will depend on what the firm asks from you as part of that conflicts check too.hey @Jessica Booker can I do my vac schemes if i have already accepted a training contract offer? I would really value the experience as i have never done a vac scheme or any legal work for that matter. i can’t find anything in any of my contracts that says i can’t. also must i disclose this to both my vs and tc firms?
