[QUOTE="Jooooopp7, post: 33803, member: 3912"] I was wondering how feasable a direct TC application to firms that offer it would be if I haven't had any previous VS experience or legal work experience. I did however gain a place on a summer VS for a silver circle firm but it was cancelled with no online replacement but I was unable to get a TC from that - this was a little annoying as I now have absolutely no experience even through I was meant to be on a VS this summer. Since I am doing the PGDL next year I don't think I will have time for a winter VS but would ideally like to get a TC asap rather than waiting for the summer VS's as I preferably want it to be at least partly funded. I was wondering whether I would be disadvantaged as I have limited legal experience or if the fact that I was able to gain a place on a VS in the first place would be a good indicator that at least another firm with a good reputation considered me to be a good candidate? or should I just wait it out and apply to spring/summer VS? Thanks for the help! [/QUOTE]
