[Oroma]

just heard back!!!! Got London TC VI!

I’ve been researching online and apparently 50% of applications get offered a VI which kinda just crushed my spirits because this is the furthest I’ve got in an application before lol. Guess I’m just going to have to smash this video interview

Still an achievement to have got to this stage even if that does seem like a high percentage!

I've been offered a VI. When did you receive that email about hearing next few days? I received that on Friday so dont worry

congrats!!

My first year of apps was last year - I applied to almost 30 firms and only received 3 VI and nothing beyond that. This round, was more specific in my approach(around 10) and this is my only VI. So take from that what you will

A non-law grad and current MA Law (conversion) student.

Just re-iterating what everyone else has said, to even get this far is still an achievement! It shows great promise in your application.
Go into the VI with your head high and be proud of your achievement rather than disheartened. Best of luck

Everyone on he

This is so true! I need to stop being so harsh on myself and have a little faith I guess :’) Best of luck everyone and I hope your interviews go great!

Also, does anyone know if the SQE programme allows for seat rotation? I’m assuming we have just picked a department and are going to stay in their for the 30 months but I thought we may have had opportunity to choose different seats like the traditional TC route?

 

[zara elles]

You do! You’re doing amazing! Congrats!

You too!

Hi guys, has anyone been invited to, or completed, the VI for professional liability? Do you guys know how long we have to prep for each question and answer?

 

[wednesday3]

Does anyone know what the next round is after the VI?! Each stage currently seems a surprise to me Congrats everyone on getting to this stage too, I think we should pat ourselves on the back

No just liability not professional liability!

You have 10-15 secs to think of an answer before it starts recording you response
