TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)

Hi,

I applied for A&O's TC a week ago(v late), did the SJT and got an email saying I passed the SJT, my app is at the review stage, and that I have the qualities of a A&O trainee etc.. THis is for the TC, rather than VS, so YMMV but thought I'd let you know. Haven't heard back otherwise.

From your other post in the forum I thought you already had a TC? Or are you applying for others before you accept?

Yes, I've got a TC, but applied to A&O a week ago, prior to accepting very recently. I've decided to accept my TC as the deadline was looming this week, but I thought I'd let others know that A&O do inform you if you passed the SJT(at least for the direct TC application in my experience). Good luck anyways for the applications and any others you do!

Congratulations! How soon after doing the SJT did you get the email?

2 days- I was informed I passed the test within 2 days.

The portal said my app was under review since the day I applied and did the SJT though, not sure if there is a delay

All the very best!

Thanks for letting me know! I completed my SJT today and my portal updated to under review immediately, but haven’t had an email yet. All the best to you too, congrats on your TC

Does anyone know how long before you find out whether you have passed the HSF assessment?

I didn’t get that email about passing the SJT. Scared now.

The person who posted on here about getting an AC said on here that they didn’t get a confirmation after the SJT so I wouldn’t stress!

Got an email 4 hours later after completing the test that I reached the benchmark and my application is now under review. Hope this helps

Perfect, thank you so much!

You should have got a report though straight away!

Yes got that!

Does anyone know if one can apply to both HSF's Winter and Spring/Summer VS? The Winter VS app window is closing in a few days so I don't know if it's wise to apply for it if I only have one shot...

Last cycle I was able to apply for both Winter and Summer- but it might have changed this cycle so don't quote me on this! Best to double check with Graduate Recruitment

If you don’t mind me asking, when did you submit your application and complete the SJT?

Just checking as your response about the SJT has seemed to stress quite a few users out. Congrats and best of luck for the TC

Anybody else still can't see the Gowling application when clicking apply?

 

[John Travoni]

Anyone else get an email from A&O just now?

No, what did the email say?

 

[John Travoni]

No, what did the email say?

Saying whether or not you had passed the SJT or not

 

[SR99]

Sorry if this has been mentioned before - is HSF winter VS rolling or non-rolling?
