TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

London Spring pref

I haven’t gotten one either but in past years it was the DTC applicants who got the holding email and I also applied for the spring placement scheme so maybe that’s why we haven’t?

When completing the work history section on various applications, should I aim to use the entire 250 words that are usually given, or should it just be a brief overview?

Anyone heard anything from Ashurst today?

I am worried that they have already sent out offers if they said results from friday as it is has been very very quiet
Hopefully we hear back soon tho cos I was in the first week of interviews so has been almost three weeks and the wait is so bad

guys, if 2/3 of my application questions have similar answers in the sense I have structured my answer around the same experiences, would that be an issue?

I would avoid doing this, yes.

I think it depends on how many experiences you have but if you can I would avoid this as law firms look for your ability to show transferable skills from various experiences.
