    I got an interview for TC last week, and in the Cover Letter, I signed my name at the bottom. I hope that helps you.

    I don’t think this person was insinuating discrimination. Travers has a disability confident scheme you can request to be considered under, if you have a disability and meet the minimum requirements you are guaranteed an interview. We just don’t know what the minimum requirements are, e.g. what...

    Hey! Congratulations on the interview invite! Unfortunately, as I got my Travers Smith VS through BIUCAC, I'm not too sure what the commercial topic discussion section involves. However, for an assessment described as a "commercial topic discussion" or debate, I would focus less on trying to...

    Hey! Most firms will have some form of assessment / interview that they will factor in alongside your performance on the scheme. One vacation scheme that I completed that didn't have a final 'interview' was Travers Smith - they ask you to submit an essay before the scheme, and then assess you...

    How long do Travers take to respond post-interview vac scheme? And are unsuccessful candidates emailed or called?

    Hi @GUt02 huge congrats for getting to the AC! The first thing I would advise you to do is to try to find out as much information as possible about Travers Smith's AC, as the kinds of questions asked and types of assessment used can differ significantly on a firm by firm basis. Having taken a...

    I applied the last day (like 15 mins before closing) and I got invited to interview early this week. The next stage (the recruitment day) is in early December (2 days on the first week of dec/1 day second week). They also have a written assessment over a 2 week period. I’d imagine that all...

    I feel like we’re saying a similar thing lol, your last sentence is what I was trying to say in the middle paragraph. My original response was to someone that didn’t seem to know that Travers offers the scheme at all so I gave them info based on what is stated on their website, but makes sense...

    Hey, I spoke with Grad Rec on a number of different occasions this cycle and they have highlighted each time that you're welcome to reapply in the same cycle as long as you haven't made it to the interview and you've made substantive changes in your application, hope that helps to clear things...

    Have Travers Smith given out all interview invites for the Summer Vac Scheme or do they give them across a few days?

    There's no obligation to disclose that, unless explicitly asked on the application. Many firms unfortunately do have a "have you applied for any role here before question" which you would have to answer truthfully. I have no list of firms, but I've generally heard UK firms in general seem to...
