    I believe it is automatic and then the score alongside your application are both considered.

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    I saw some people posting earlier regarding Hogan Lovells--if you applied for a training contract direct the latest you will hear back by is mid-March. I am unsure about vacation schemes (sorry!). But I had applied for a summer vacation scheme before I switched to a direct TC and I didn't have...

    According to their website winter and summer vacation schemes are open to penultimate year law degree, final year non-law degree students, or beyond that. So you should be fine to apply if you're either of those or past that.

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Just wanted to add to what Jess said about extra time (sorry if this is the wrong place!). But with extra time, firms (in my experience) tend to be pretty supportive in cases where you were not given extra time in specific circumstances (i.e., where you had a deadline and you have had no...

    CMS Opportunities 2021/22

    Scotland might be different - but from what I have been informed with the applications (generally) is that they have a benchmark. Certain individuals are fast-tracked to an AC immediately (this may be through previous experiences with the firm). PFO's are also sent out where the benchmark hasn't...

    It definitely is still worth applying for, yes! They may have given some out some AC invitations already - but there will still be plenty left. Rolling firms accept that a huge number of applications tend to come in the final days of the application process - so there will be plenty of...

    For those waiting for a response from CMS - I had a conversation with one of their graduate recruiters. They said that if you hadn't heard anything as of yet, there is no need to be worried.
