TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

[EL2003]

Does anyone recon we may heard from SH today? They seem to have been quick and on it this cycle and the last from my understanding.

I think the deadline was yesterday so I doubt it maybe next week though or the week after

Does anyone know is Brabers interactive assessment is automatic ?

 

[Jamese12c]

Yh I guess so - I just saw that last year VI offers were sent out like around the 11th and some VS offers were received by the 17th.

Hi had a teams meeting yesterday for some of my VI because I had a technical issue and they said to expect an answer in 2 to 3 weeks (might have been because I applied for summer though).

Oh wow okay - a bit of a wait then. Sorry to hear about your technical issues, I hope they’re all sorted now.

Their email said “The next stage of the process is our interactive assessment, which is sent only to candidates who are successful at the initial screening stage. These will be issued in phases, so please don’t be discouraged if you know someone who has progressed and you haven’t heard from us yet - we may simply not have reached your application. A link will come to you via "Amberjack Assessment Platform", if you are progressed.” So I guess it means next stage! I just got my email progressing me to test too yayyy

The post-ac wait is just me reliving every embarrassing thing I did at the AC, reliving the partners' faces and cringing while I'm at work
Release me from this prison

I hate amberjacks so much…. Also, do you know if there is a video interview part ? It doesn’t seem to suggest their is, but other threads have said there is, but I’m not sure if that’s just for direct tc

Literally me. I start making faces and cringing without realising I genuinely think I have got PTSD from some ACs.

congratulations !!!! That's amazing !!!

 

[TheSaulGoodman]

Just absolutely bombed a q in a partner interview - feeling quite dejected as unsure of my chances of getting to AC now, quite disappointed as it was my best prospect and I only have a few firms to hear back from and I keep getting rejections ((

I felt like I completely bombed my written exercise (LIKE COMPLETELY FAILED) for Goodwin and I still got the offer so really don’t worry too much!

 

[henry1050]

yeah

congrats!
