TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

Hi everyone! Those who applied for the Disney Legal Graduate internship and did the online test, what results did you achieve? I have a hard time interpreting mine...

I got clear strength for Cognitive Verbal and relative strength for Cognitive Inductive, so I think that should be fine (?). However, I got 6 clear strenghts, 4 relative strengths, 6 average and 2 weak skills for the personality test - are they looking for more strengths overall? I don't know how these results compare to scoring in Amberjack for example.

Also any idea how they assess our application holisitically? We submitted a cover letter and CV already, so is there a benchmark on the online test for our application to be considered?

Based on the 'Understanding Your Assessment Report' page they linked to the report, there are 4 categories for every skill (and Verbal and Inductive are measured as two separate skills):
  • "Strength": Very strong level of skill compared to other professionals at your level
  • "Relative strength": Better performance than most professionals at your level
  • "As skilled as most others": Consistent with the majority of professionals at this level
  • "Development area": An opportunity for growth
Hi, I don’t know what they are looking for or what to expect but my results were - 14 clear strengths, 1 area of development, 3 relative strengths!

What was you’re development area? Mine was the shapes thing ie inductive!

Also assuming they will give more weight to CV unless the test went horribly wrong?
