These do not need to be White & Case specific. (Max. 350 words)”: (a) What structure should I follow? (b) Can I refer to...- legallybrunnette

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26
CMS PFO almost immediately after submitting. I submitted on an evening, and got rejected the next morning. I was wondering if they have already filled the position because this has never happened to me before and I have not seen anything massively wrong with my app. Unless they review them...- legallybrunnette

[Official] Willkie, Farr & Gallagher Vacation Scheme Thread 2025/26
Thanks, Kristy — that’s really helpful. Just to confirm, when you say I’m allowed to list third-party open-access events, does that also include events hosted by peer firms? I wasn’t sure whether these count as acceptable third-party events or whether they need to be Willkie-exclusive. Thank...- legallybrunnette

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26
Hi Abby, Thank you very much for this structure — it’s been really helpful. I was wondering what your view is on “opportunity” and how we should present it. For example, I’ve identified a regulatory reform as my commercial issue, which is highly relevant to one of Ashurst’s core practice...- legallybrunnette

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26
Same here ! Pure STJ, no VI. It is so weird that everyone seems to be receiving different tests for the same OD! What do you think? Will we receive one soon? or Did we get away with it for good? Just trying to prepare myself mentally because it sounds too good to be true so any thoughts...- legallybrunnette

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26
Hi! First of all, good luck with your application! Second of all, would you mind sharing what kind of tests you received? I only received a pure STJ without a VI or WG for the Open Day. I am so confused because, after talking to my acquaintances and other applicants, everyone seems to have...- legallybrunnette

Hi everyone! I just wanted to make a helpful suggestion real quick! I have been seeing a lot of info around the Latham VI. Some people have written on the forum that it is competency based, other say it consists of STJ questions. Also, there are differing accounts of how much time one has...- legallybrunnette

Hi there, this is vey good insight! Thank you for this! Did you yourself take it recently and have this info or is it individual research? I am a bit surprised because all these years it has been competency based mainly so it would be good to know if they have changed the question format to...- legallybrunnette

First of all, Congrats! Would you mind giving a bit of info on your background for example overall grade, RG, non-RG. I understand if you don't wish to share. I achieved similar scores but have not received yet a VI that's why I was wondering. Thank you- legallybrunnette
