    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Honestly ! I started seeing people getting troubles continuously to get annual leaves or breaks from their full time jobs due to conflict interests or contract restrictions, after securing a vacation scheme and going through a long process. Also, there is a problem of international students who...

    I agree ! Unfortunately, we should assume pfo by now, as ACs have been given and no chance to invite more people. I was disappointed too as I think I did the VI well.

    @axelbeugre @Jessica Booker Having an AC for a Dubai TC, should I split my research about the firm news and deals between London and Dubai Office, or focusing completely on Dubai office, as the TC is for Dubai. PS: The AC will be run by the London GR team.

    Every time I give up and say that my cycle is over now, and I get through next stage with a firm. Thanks NRF for saving me last minute (VI). I see many slots available guys, so there's still a chance :)

    Debate with me

    According to the insider, the firm is investing too much in its trainees (50T * 150k) and partners (1.5 mil average), while ignoring the big portion of associates. This has resulted in a huge gap in salaries, and encouraged associates to look outside. It is predicted that W&C will collapse at...

    Debate with me

    W&C is losing associates and the progress margin of its salaries from NQs to 7+PQE is very low, which is only 50k (inside Information), that’s why I would never consider it a direct competitor to US Law Firms, at least from this perspective.

    I am wondering whether AC invites for Mishcon Spring VS were given on batches or only through 1 time. Anyone can please help in this regard to see if I should expect PFO at this point ? (Congrats for who get invited to the AC)

    Clyde & Co Training Contract application

    Tbh, I submitted my application since October, so I forgot this detail. However, I remember that I listed all my grades somewhere, including the GDL and LPC. I am wondering how the application is still open, as they progressed people to VI and waiting for an AC.
