TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26
This is my first year applying, so I can't speak to what it was like in previous years. However, I would imagine it has become a lot more competitive.- Prudentia

I found the W&C Open Day application quite hard. Granted, it was my first (and only) one so far. If I was to critique my application, I would say I perhaps didn’t emphasise why I need to attend the open day. But I will also be at their event with Legal Cheek at 4, so see you then!- Prudentia

White & Case Open Day PFO on my birthday! It’s my first rejection this cycle and it’s my top firm. Slightly disappointing, but onwards and upwards. Now to the vac scheme application. 😅- Prudentia

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26
Congratulations on the TC offer! Personally, I would just apply to firm 2 this round. You’re in a strong position and you’ve got nothing to lose (which can actually make your application stronger). Worst case scenario is you don’t get an offer for firm 2 but you still have an offer for firm 1...- Prudentia

Is anyone else approaching associates/partners from the law firms they’re thinking of applying to for tips and advice? I’ve asked a senior associate at one of the MC firms I’m applying to and have a meeting with them next week to discuss the application and hopefully gain some useful tips.- Prudentia

Hello - I'm a mid-30s Career Changer
Hi John, Lovely to see another career changer here. I echo what Abbie said - you clearly have a lot to offer any law firm as you have so much professional experience. I’m in a similar boat to you and what’s helped my mindset is reframing the question from “why me?” to “why not me?” That’s given...- Prudentia

Late 20s career changer - finally taking the plunge and pursuing law!
Hi everyone! It’s so lovely to be here and to read through everyone’s stories. I’m a career changer who is looking to (finally) stop being scared and pursue a career in commercial/corporate law. I wish I had done law much sooner as it has always been an interest of mine. My A level grades...- Prudentia
