To be fair I think it takes something like an avg of 3 applications cycles to secure a TC. As much as it’s frustrating, I don’t think it’s the end of the world to get to third year or even graduate uni without getting a TC.

Hey! I work full time as a paralegal and totally understand this feeling 🤣 I started at the end of October last year so had very few days of leave up until the new year but had several open days, etc. Unfortunately I just took the hit and used up all of my holiday last year on those things.

I have an AC this week and starting to panic a little bit about the written assessment as I haven’t done one before. I’ve been told this firm specifically is less technical and more common sense based where you should bring in commercial awareness where possible. Does anyone have any good advice...- Petallove1

Hey! I didn't do an LLB I did a conversion, but I'd imagine if you did well in Advanced Contract and Tort that it will show you are capable in those areas irrespective and that grade is an anomaly. It also does just really depend where you apply! Some firms are more renowned for being very picky...- Petallove1

Has anyone heard back from Farrer direct TC yet? I think I applied end of Jan and haven’t heard anything so wondered if anyone knew when we’re likely to hear? <3- Petallove1

Very pleased that after two years of smashing out applications I have *finally* got to my first AC for the Internal direct training contract at DWF :D (received the news just after I was leaving the test centre for a failed driving test - so softened the blow!). It's a strength-based interview...- Petallove1
