    I’m Tigmika (and I’m struggling to say anything more about myself! Clearly not a good sign as a TC applicant!)
    I am Indian qualified with an LLM in international arbitration and have recently moved to London to pursue an arbitration internship at Linklaters.
    I very recently discovered the concept of a TC and have put out a few applications - already having gotten 2 rejections! Woohoo! And taken the Freshfields WG and the WFW VI. I’m waiting to hear from the others and see if I progress further with any other firms.
    I would love to be a part of such a supportive community in a time of such stress and uncertainty!
    Looking forward to speaking to people and hoping for success all round 😊
