TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

[yasmars]

Morning everyone, three questions:

- I applied for Gibson Dunn direct TC, but did not receive the test. Anyone encountered this issue?
- any news from Debevoise?
- did anyone receive any PFOs from Paul,Weiss?

Last year I applied to their DTC and didn’t even receive a rejection so I think they really prioritise VS applications here.

Well when they reply to someone who asked about a VI then it’s pretty safe to assume that it could be post VI🙂also not having to comment on everything is fundamental to assessment centres and written exercises

it said POST APP. I do not comment on everything you are upset by my response and I am sorry you feel this way. It was not a toxic response it just clearly (to me) said post app. good luck

it was replied to a response POST VI, people are sometimes vague here, if you would mind your own that person could’ve just said it was actually post app and I read wrong or ignored it. Didn’t really care what was clear to you lol

The person said post app yet you still ask post VI how can you become a lawyer when you can't read basic sentences.

Quite ironic because I’m a banker from a top 5 uni lol, but if you want to put people down because all I asked was some post VI and you wanna comment because you have nothing better to do then sure weirdo

Can you not read properly they said post app

Jesus Christ just stop already. Why are some of you acting like this? You’re irritated by an innocent post that misunderstood something but think that your clearly hostile message is fine? Surely someone that made it to Goodwin’s VI can read very well, what’s the point of these attacks?

 

[Legallywhatever]

There is a respectful way to say things, which is a good general skill to have; and if that's tricky then perhaps no comment where a comment is not needed is better?

Happy to help with Reed Smith VI, FF stage 2, CMS VI

Can you help me with CMS VI, In particuar what kind of questions were you asked?

 

[radssss]

reading is fundamental guys. simple things like this are tested on assessment centers and written exercises.

???? That is very rude. Well, manners and kindness will also be important to clear an assessment centre

Putting this out here because this ill mannered person needs to be called out. I feel sorry for you and how rude you are.
Best of luck getting a tc and working in a firm and talking to clients this way.

I just said 1 thing why trying to get involved and making it worse for others just end it here. You are basically drawing more attention to the situation.
