    BBC Solicitor Apprenticeship

    Interested if anyone else applied to this? I got an email saying they had extended the deadline and wondered if this was due to them not getting as many applicants as they had hoped? Possibly because of the slightly unusual entry requirements which may have limited the number of people who qualify?

    From what I have seen there is only one person on their GR team so could just be a case of them getting many more applications towards the deadline and getting swamped Edit: Last year I applied for a direct TC on the deadline (I think?) and heard back about a month and a half later and from how...

    My HSF rejection also got me quite down because I spent a long time researching and writing my answers, had it checked over and felt like it was one of my stronger applications! You are right, this forum is really comforting in knowing you are not alone in the process. Hope you are doing ok!

    Last summer I applied for a direct TC at Bates Wells with very little knowledge about how to write successful rejections (did things like bullet pointed work experience etc.) and unsurprisingly I got rejected.
