    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    I honestly think that literally anything is 'good', it's just how you speak about it. I believe that drawing out the skills/ things you've learnt from any form of experience is a skill in itself that gets tested by firms/grad rec etc
