    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

    Can firms see what I have submitted for my forage work exp assessments. I did I bulk of them during exams last year and rushed a few that definitely arent my best work - is it worth redoing them or not mentioning them at all?

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

    Might be a silly question, but should I really be tailoring my work exp section to each firm? I have never done this in the past as my work exp is really more a list of things I have done in each role rather than explaining the skills I've learnt in the role. Should I be looking at the...

    I did the test this year so not sure if it is worth reapplying with the same score? I know my written answers could be improved which i am planning to do but conflicted on whether I should wait for the direct tc to apply and do another test?

    Does anyone know if you are able to take the Ashurst psychometric test again or whether they use your previous scores? I completed the assessment last year but did not progress. I've heard a few people say they keep your scores for two years but not too sure.

    Thanks for this! Do you know if you are recorded during the assessments or just the VI sections? Want to know whether I’ll need to put on a smart top right at the beginning or not😂 Also, I did not realise there was a written excersize. Their website says: The assessment will include situational...

    @Jessica Booker I got the bronze membership a few days ago but somehow created 2 different accounts with the same email address🤦🏼‍♀️. Could I please get some help trying to access the premium database/sorting out my accounts? Thank you!

    Hi Jaysen! I have purchased the bronze membership just now. However, I signed up with the same email address of an old account of mine (did not realise they were linked!). I would appreciate if you could have a look into this because I'm not sure what account I'm using or which account is...

    I haven’t heard anything since they said they’re getting back by the 31st latest, not sure if this means they’ve seen my application and made a decision (hence not giving me a further extension)?

    Exactly my thoughts which is why I’ve suddenly become slightly hopeful. However, the pessimist in me is also thinking that they have probably filled up their TC places from the ACs but legally cannot send out rejections unless they have reviewed the application. Which is why they are just...

    I haven’t heard back since the initial application stage so I doubt they would be giving feedback for my application, i think firms only give feedback if you passed got to the interview stage. I agree I think they should’ve just sent out the blanket rejection email but not sure if I’m being...

    I just got an email saying they now intend to get back by 31st May. Not sure either why they are waiting so long when it’s surely a pfo at this point
