Yeah it's definitely thorough! It's consulting, not law, so not sure if that's standard practice there. The internship is 8 weeks. I'd need the 2 days off 4 weeks into the internship. First round interviews will be in week 7, and final round interviews will be either on the last or...- AP2000

TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)
There is a mandatory workshop for 2 full working days, first round interviews (3 interviews in one day), and final round interviews (3 interviews in one day). I have enough paid time off, but I'm not sure whether taking days off will be seen in a negative light and influence final decisions re...- AP2000

Hey! I have an interview coming up in August (I was given the dates already), but I will be working full-time then as intern. I am doing an internship at a company I really like and am worried that taking time off (4 days in total) to interview elsewhere will ruin my chances with the first...- AP2000

So I took part in an inter-university commercial awareness competition recently. We were in small teams, and my teammate and I had to present back to the panel on a case study. Our presentation had multiple sections which we split amongst ourselves. They start first, I go next- all good so far...- AP2000

That's a good question. I can't explain why vacation schemes pay the amount they do, but I have a banking internship lined up for the summer so I can maybe provide a bit of insight onto that. From my experience (obviously can't speak for all banks), the salary you get for the summer internship...- AP2000

If I could add to the previous responses, I would personally approach this as an ESG topic more broadly. It's not just law firms, it's big companies like McDonalds, Starbucks, the Big Four, energy companies like Shell. There was a huge campaign on social media targeting any major company that...- AP2000

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)
Hey! I'm involved in a university society and we're organising a law event. A firm I've applied to are experts on the specific topic of the event and I think they'd be great to reach out to. Is there anything wrong with me reaching out to grad rec about this given I am an applicant?- AP2000

How possible is it to defer vac scheme offers to the next application cycles (e.g., summer 2022 to winter 2022)? I understand that it will differ from firm to firm, but I'm wondering whether this is even an option- AP2000

Not sure about supernova or spark, but I am on Strive's "shift(bootcamp)" (a legal tech course) and that programme is running very well- interesting course material, mentoring opportunities, open days with the partner law firms, and constant communication via slack. Not saying this to...- AP2000

I don't think so either, at least not based on when you did the GBA.- AP2000

Got in touch with grad rec and they said they are still reviewing applications and GBA scores. They aim to deliver all application outcomes in the next few weeks. :) Hope this helps. It's not necessarily a PFO.- AP2000

So, I was just in a workshop with Hogan Lovells and they said that they have plenty more ACs coming up and that actually if you haven't heard back yet it's a good thing because it means your application is still under consideration! Haven't applied to HL but I've seen a few posts from people...- AP2000
