TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

hmmm, i think you are right, it would not make sense that it would indicate anything prior to them having communicated anything to us!

Mines had a green tick since applying. I don’t think it means anything, I think everyone should have it if your application is at “under review” stage (which mine has been since the moment I pressed submit)

I just got a 'feedback and next steps' email from A&O - anyone know if this means you passed the SJT?

Not sure, got it yesterday but it looks like pretty much everyone does.. think it might be automatic?

Can anyone help advise me about Slaughter and May. I applied for the Winter Workshop which I was successful at securing. However, I turned it down so I can attend White & Case's Winter Vacation Scheme. I am now just going to apply for the S&M TC which they said I could do. Does anyone know whether it is okay to just send in the same cover letter (obviously updated to reflect the fact that I am applying for the TC not WW). They won't consider it plagiarism or anything like that right? Time is of the essence so I want to make as minimal changes as possible. Any advice on this would be really helpful!

I second this - I did the test on the 17th and got the email on Wednesday. I'm sure they are sending the email in batches

Hey,

I sent an application for CC TC yesterday at like 9pm.

I still haven’t received the invite for WGT.

I wondered if I should email them, or is it likely they would send it EOD because the hard deadline for test submissions is Sunday 26th.

I genuinely thought it was automatic…

I think that they are slowly sending the WG to all the applicants. I believe that, last night, they were inundated with applications.

 

[norothrow324]

Do you know if CC lets us know how we did on the WG or we just have to wait for a PFO
