[QUOTE="Flk10, post: 34007, member: 4728"] It’s not just a case of other students not getting priority though- if they fill all their places with penultimate year students, those applications won’t even be looked at. Many firms recruit predominantly from VSs, but most (barring small intake US firms) will still review direct TC apps and a large number of places will still be offered under this route. I think the video CC have published with the head of Grad Rec effectively goes as far as telling non-penultimate year students not to bother applying without actually saying those words- in their own words, these applicants will have very little prospect of success. Of course if others are absolutely desperate to work at CC and still want to apply, they should. But I’d be astonished if the firm recruits many (if any) non-penultimate students this cycle having gone out of their way to advise them not to apply. So there will be an opportunity cost in terms of another application that could have been made to a firm that is happy to recruit anyone and treats all apps the same. [/QUOTE]
