    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Maybe they're too busy with the interviews right now and we're all going to get pfos in like a month 😭

    Nope, still waiting for an update, I'm starting to think I'll never hear back from them lol

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    If the PFO was post-WG those of us who are still waiting to hear back from them would seem to be sort of on hold?? Which would be really weird because someone here who got an AC invite said there were limited options available on the calendar so it seems like they're done with the AC invites

    Literally, I don't get the radio silence...I wonder if they've even sent any pfos because if they have there might still be hope for us?

    At this point surely they must know if its a PFO for us or not...It's my top choice, I don't think I can handle waiting over the weekend...

    Yeah maybe, hopefully tomorrow is the day then

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    I was thinking that too, but if their system is that they add our application score and test score together and see if we meet the benchmark, surely they already know if we're in/out

    So sorry about the PFO :// Do you mind sharing if you were happy with your percentile? I've heard of other law firms rejecting people who were in like the 93rd percentile which is crazyy

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    My friend applied 10 minutes before the deadline and got the email on Friday as well so idk how they choose which applications to review first...Maybe it's all random, I can't help but overthink though haha

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Some people are still waiting for their WG invitation and some received one on Friday so I'm pretty sure they must be reviewing them in batches?
  19. I

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Also, regarding Freshfields, does anyone know why they review applications in batches? Surely without looking at all of the applications they can't be certain if someone is 'worthy' of a WG/AC invite compared to all the other applicants

    Maybe we can only get them after they give us a decision?
