    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    I think they say on their website something along the lines of ‘we don’t fill all our places before the deadline’. I interpret this to mean they are reviewing applications on a rolling basis. However, since they are having technical issues with their automatic test, there‘s probably no rush to...

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    I got a rejection for an Open Day for a firm last year but was successful in applying for their Vacation Scheme. Sometimes firms have limited Open Day places (especially in-person) or may be looking for different criteria. If it’s your top firm, I would say definitely still worth applying for...

    Are people who have applied to Osborne Clarke still waiting for their online test? I got their email saying they were having technical problems two weeks ago now, and have had no follow-up since.

    For me so far it’s Hogan Lovells, BCLP, Addleshaw Goddard and Osborne Clarke. Waiting to hear back from all of them, and still waiting for the test from OC.

    Best way of describing it is like a Watson Glaser on steroids! You can’t go back and review your answers (it seems). I like the WG, but the Addleshaw Goddard test is tough.

    It’s automatic but I think it’s likely they don’t send them out at weekends. I applied on a Friday and got the test on a Monday.

    Ask BCLP Anything!

    Hi Isabel! I applied to BCLP for the Spring Vacation Scheme back in mid-September and I know you read applications on a rolling basis, and have started to invite some candidates to interview. Should I be concerned that my application has not been successful if I haven’t heard back from the...

    I’m interested to know if anyone is applying/has applied for both the HL Winter Vac and for their Lift Off scheme. I see nothing on the website which suggests you cannot apply for both. Since the Lift Off scheme includes an invitation to an assessment centre for their Summer Vac, is this a...

    I just put degree and the grade graduated with. I think the only way you could put your modules would be to put them as separate qualifications which doesn't seem correct. Did you find the form suspiciously short? Also I couldn't see where to select Spring or Summer, just a location for their...
