Is applying to vac schemes still worth it if I'm going to US law school next year?

[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 43995, member: 2672"] To put it into perspective, I did 40 interviews in 2 days and only had 1 role I was recruiting for when doing US recruitment, and that was after I had cut down the applications from around 350-400 before I flew out - the applications only came from a handful of top tier US universities too, mainly on the East coast. Campus interviews help but they don't guarantee anything. US legal job market (especially New York) is far far more competitive than London in my opinion. Like UK universities, I suspect US ones can do a lot to manipulate their data of how many of their grads work in organisations. I would suspect many of the law grads aren't even in legal roles but are in other large corporate organisations. [/QUOTE]
