TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26
- Thread starter Ram Sabaratnam
- Start date
There were some difficulties doing the interview before because mine is virtual.
@Jaysen @Ram Sabaratnam @Andrei Radu and anyone else that can help!
I was considering applying to Freshfields direct TC this year (final year student) after being rejected for the summer vacation scheme last cycle. Considering that there is no longer a cover letter, how would you approach I go about this and show that I have taken into account the improvements they suggested after the assessment centre. Also wanted to ask whether anyone has done the online test, and whether there are any video interview questions ?
Thank you !

This is a bit of tricky situation. I think your best bet would be to try to leverage any more recent work experience (even if it is just a Forage one or an Open Day) as an attempt on your part to action their feedback and become a better candidate - see if you can comment on the experience having developed any skills that you were told you could work on after the AC.
I sent my Freshfields app on Sunday but have just realised I entered my overall university score incorrectly. Does anyone have an email address for grad rec? Or any advice? It doesn’t let you amend anything on Vantage and I can’t see an email address on the confirmation. Opinions appreciated!! Thank you) @Ram Sabaratnam @Andrei Radu

Hello!
If the form doesn't explicitly state to include all module results, I would include your overall result and highlight any key modules that you undertook during your degree
Hi everyone, how long after applying to Freshfields (putting in your info) do you get the tests? I received an email saying I would be sent the tests once it had been confirmed I met the eligibility criteria but how long did people hear back with tests after? Also given they do this check does this mean that the tests are not automatic? Thanks in advance
Yes! Was asked to provide some additional details via Vantage due to a technical error (was just GCSE/A-level results) and then invited today for a WG which I passed.
Next steps apparently on 8th December if you’re progressed to the video interview stage!
thabk you, i have not heard back and i applied from the website dk if that makes a difference
