    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

    Just got the WG invite for FBD - for anyone who has already completed it, out of interest did the platform require you to switch your video and audio on? Just a bit conscious of being recorded and whether I need to dress professionally for it. Thanks!

    If anyone has had an AC at Weil this cycle, would you mind PMing me? Happy to share insights into ACs at Simmons, Slaughters, W&C and Addleshaw

    Can't speak to the first question, but one of my friends did the SWE last cycle and he got his scheme offer through an email. He did his interview around mid-Feb and heard back in early March.

    Out of interest, if I'm asked 'what is the role of a trainee at our firm' for a VI/AC, do I need to explain what they actually do and then draw a link to my skills, or should I just focus on demonstrating my knowledge of what a trainee actually does?

    It's actually so jarring that we're expected to provide a detailed/personalised answer for each question in 1000 characters or less...

    Has anyone done the Weil VI yet as part of this year's VS application process? If so, would you mind PMing me?
