Don't know how much this helps, but for their LGBTQ+ Open Day I applied for through AllAboutLaw, it had a character limit rather than a word limit, and I'm pretty sure it was 600 characters per question. That might be an AllAboutLaw thing though, rather than a Hogan Lovells thing.- sammm10101

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25
I've seen on a couple applications forms (I think, don't quote me on this!) that they want the experience written in full prose. However, I have never come close to 600 words per an entry, and mine are much closer to the 50-100 words. For bigger roles I think I have written up to 175 words-ish...- sammm10101

I received an email from them today which basically said that while I didn't make the cut, they were 'impressed' by my application and that I'm on the waiting list if a place opens up. Am assuming that this is just a very polite PFO... 😭- sammm10101

applying for vac Schemes to TC Dreams
Honestly if you can get a financial times subscription (I get mine through my uni), so many of theirs are really informative and actually interesting to listen to. Their daily news briefing is good for general stories, but their 'Behind the Money' podcast is the best. A recent one which was...- sammm10101
