Applying for vacation schemes can then be tricky if you can't get the time off from work from your current employer, or if there is a conflict of interest between your current employer and the firm you would do a VS with.2) Eligibility criteria - some firms state you have to be in a certain academic year of your studies to be eligible to apply. There are enough mature students around that if a firm states you have to be a penultimate year or final year student to be eligible for their programme, they could still apply. However, many older applicants are those who have already graduated who therefore may not be eligible for some firm's programmes.If neither of the above apply though, you should be applying for vac schemes no matter what your age. It was fine for the mid-40s vac schemer I recruited a few years back anyway.</blockquote>
