    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Did anyone else get completely ghosted by Winston & Strawn after completing the WG? It's literally been two months and I know they invited people to interview and gave out offers. Should I chase them up for a PFO?

    Has anyone who filled out V&E's acceptance form heard back? I thought we'd get confirmation the next business day, but I've heard nothing since I filled out the form at the weekend.

    How is it best to ask a firm for an AC outcome ASAP due to a potentially conflicting VS offer? I have an offer from a US firm that schedules their VS across different weeks, depending on candidate availability. I'm awaiting two AC outcomes that would affect this, and ideally, I'd like to know if...

    Ropes AC - the real question is do I have enough time to do this because I am struggling so much to balance uni work with applications (dissertation due at the end of March is nowhere near done)🙃

    I've been offered a VS and have an interview with a different firm this week. However, the two firms have nothing in common. I don't know how to approach the question of where else I've applied. I'm worried if I say I have a VS offer with firm A, it will make me look inconsistent because many of...
