TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24
I haven’t heard back post-test for Spring. Obviously a PFO at this point but I’m so confused why some people have heard back with a PFO and others radio silence 😞.- Fd321

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24
Yeah exactly! That’s what I was worried about too so I picked all the answers about working in a team and also the vid at the beginning was saying like never feel scared to ask people questions etc. but then I scored low on initiative. But like I didn’t want to seem like I liked working...- Fd321

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24
I’m still waiting to hear but my top skills were detail and learning agility. I believe my “weakest” strength was initiative but that’s because I answered with their “collaborative”/teamwork culture in mind. What about you?- Fd321

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23
I know some ppl have received PFOs, but all I had was probably around a month ago a lady from grad Rec phoned me asking for some of my grades that I have obtained since I initially applied (I was doing the LPC this year and I applied originally for the VS in Jan). She said they would be in touch...- Fd321

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23
Does anyone know whether your past applications stay on firms databases I.e. so you can look at them on their website for next cycle to reflect. Or is it best to save them externally. I’m worried that my apps will just disappear/ be deleted once the cycle is over.- Fd321

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23
I did make them aware and told them I was having blood tests etc as I was not yet diagnosed as diagnosis took months and have only formally received the diagnosis now. But having missed probably about 30-40% of lessons because of how tired I was (which I now know was due to this condition), it...- Fd321

@Jessica Booker do you think that being diagnosed with an auto immune condition whilst studying for my LPC which affected my attendance counts as “extenuating circumstances”?- Fd321
