    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Does anyone know how the Linklaters Watson Glaser deadline works? I applied on the 13th, thinking I'd have until the 18th to complete the test (they said they give you 5 days), I was about to start the test today, and now it says I have 5 days from now (until the 22nd) Don't get me wrong I'll...

    Is there any benefit to doing Linklaters' Watson Glaser test as soon as possible? It says I have 5 days from submitting my application but they also put in the email: "We ask that you complete the test as soon as possible within the next five days." (the bolded text is now own emphasis) Would...

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

    This probably has a really obvious answer but I thought I'd ask in case I'm misreading things: when is the deadline for Latham & Watkins' training contract applications? The application website lists it as the 10th December but all the legal help websites (lawcareers, legal500, chambersstudent...

    For those who have applied to Clifford Chance, do you get a specific, individual deadline to complete your Watson Glaser test (based on the time you submitted your application) or is it 23:59pm on Sunday 26th November for everyone?

    Managed to get past the first interview for the Bristows TC application and now have a written exercise. Does anyone have any advice specifically for Bristows or in general? In the past this part has definitely let me down so would appreciate any help & insight! Thanks! :)

    Has anyone done a written Case Study assessment as part of an AC? I've got one for Ashurst which is remote, which has details to log into their webpage, but also separate Zoom details. I'm just a bit confused as to what Zoom is used for so was just wondering how things are structured? Thanks!

    Did anyone else go to the Freshfields Graduate Workshop yesterday? I've got written notes but wouldn't mind comparing them to someone who typed theirs

    White & Case PFO this morning - was expecting it since I know some others got their application outcome almost 2 weeks ago (although some other people hadn't heard last week afaik).

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Hi @Jessica Booker I hope you're doing well! I was wondering if you had any insight as to whether, past the initial stage, interviews are ever assessed on a rolling basis?
