TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5
COB,EOB,EOD, etc. are all very fluid terms and no one actually give it much weight.

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5
baker have started looking at apps. From previous years if the portal changes from details locked to not anonymous means they’ve at least opened it. For reference I applied about a month ago (right after open) and it changed one of these days (haven’t been on the portal in about a week and a half)- norothrow324

I think something to think about isn’t what the title/firm was but what transferable skills you gained. With that said though, direct apps usually have experienced applicants (a lot of foreign trained jurists) so experience is definitely valued- norothrow324

From previous cycles, does anyone know whether there is any truth to Baker’s portal changing their Anonimity status from details locked to not anonymous being a signal that your app has been viewed/decided on?- norothrow324
