TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5
It's been great to see all the TC offers people have posted about in the last month (which I am very happy for!) but equally I think transparency when it's bad news is also important. Was waiting on a firm for the last month since doing the AC in late August, heard back today and got rejected...- MCL

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25
Hey, has anyone applied for the Freshfields winter scheme? I started researching and preparing my apps for this cycle today and saw that apparently Freshfields' winter deadline was yesterday? I thought the first deadline was Sidley Austin (tomorrow, 13th September).- MCL

I applied and did the test on the same day because I had time. This was back in March though so I don't remember the exact format sorry - but I think it should be broadly similar to most SJT's etc. I think it took around 30-40 mins.- MCL

Do you mind me asking what this is for? I applied for their Legal Assistant (Paralegal) role for the London office back in March, did some online test and then heard nothing for months. I emailed in June asking when they'd get back to me and they said they'll only review my app when there's an...- MCL

No news from AG, PH or K&L Gates - although tbf I applied on the deadline (31st July) for all three. I emailed Edwin Coe 2 weeks back asking when they'd get back to me (fully expecting a PFO) and they said they're still reviewing.- MCL

Do you mean the Graduate workshop? I think that'll open in October and that's for graduates specifically. I've only ever applied for the direct TC, nothing else, but I'm guessing the December/Jan TC deadline will be for grads and the summer 2025 deadline will be for (law) students.- MCL

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5
Maybe someone else will have a better idea about this but I'm a graduate and I applied for their Jan deadline (PFO after tests) because I assumed I didn't qualify for the summer deadline. Not sure about HL but I know for Freshfields also have 2 TC deadlines and the summer one is for current...- MCL

Damn, really? I did their initial application, online test and then video interview. Why make me/others do all this to then give out all offers to people from VS's?- MCL
