TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

[InterestInPublicLaw]

Did anyone get a PFO from RPC? I applied on the deadline and haven't heard anything.

Also asking if anyone has a response from Howes Percival, Edwin Coe, and Birketts (direct TC route)

For those who were looking for a job but were going to make applications in the next cycle this might be worth considering especially if interested in IP law and you havent been able to find paralegal work

Check out this job at Christie's: https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/4275941299

Is slaughter and may realistically put of the picture by now if they haven't gotten back?

No, I am also still waiting for RPC and Edwin Coe.

I didn’t apply to Howes and Birketts so don’t know about them.

No, I am also still waiting for RPC and Edwin Coe.

Thank you!!

I applied to HL two days ago and still haven’t received the WG link, i thought it was automatic?

I wanted to know if there is an avenue on this forum wherein I can get my VS or TC applications reviewed? Thank you!

 

[InterestInPublicLaw]

I likewise did two.

Not sure I'd say "survived". More like failed. Ok, technically I have six live applications, and one more still to make.

But I'm no longer hopeful that I will get anywhere.

Next year will kick ass.
Or something.

By the way, may I know what's the final firm you're going to apply to?

Applied on 29/7 and haven't received either

Has anyone applied to Stephenson Harwood DTC, close to the deadline? If anyone knows how quick their response time is, let me know

@Ram Sabaratnam @Amma Usman @Jaysen having a bit of a crisis here, I refreshed by broweser and my Stephenson Harwood app submitted when I wasnt finished I emailed grad rec to explain that if they dont have time to reply before the deadline, I'll make a different account to submit and leave a note on the new application - do you think that is okay and will this put me at a disadvantage do you think? thanks guys! from a worried applicant :')

Can I just ask how did this happen? after I hit submit on my application page, I was sent a link to my email which said only if I click on it, my application will actually be submitted. Once I clicked I then received a verification email which confirmed my application was submitted.

I am wondering now if you didn’t click on the link, perhaps your application wasn’t even sent at all the first time around?

I applied last night. I will update the form once I receive a response back.
