    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    How quickly do you usually hear back after a VS on whether you've got a TC? I've got 2 VS back to back this summer so wondering when I'll need to make any decisions or weigh them up if I'm successful!

    Nope, assume you haven't? I think it could be anytime this week from what they said, unless you were told differently.

    Thanks for the insight. Assuming you took part in yesterday's, did you get a sense of how many ACs they're running and when they'll let people know whether they have an offer?

    I have an AC coming up which will include a written exercise and a group presentation / project - but no interviews. Does anyone have a sense of what these will entail and how to prepare? It feels like there's a limited amount you can actually do!

    Have discovered that some US firms don't require the GDL for non-law graduates and instead put you on a "bespoke SQE prep course" in partnership with Barbri. Does anyone know what this entails, and whether you're at a disadvantage having not done the GDL?

    Any general advice for preparing for an AC? It'll be my first one ever. Also, is it acceptable to reach out to current trainees on LinkedIn for tips?

    Does anyone know whether Orrick pay for the course fees for the GDL or SQE?
