Latham Dubai Summer Vac Scheme

[asstronaut]

Hi everyone, I thought I'd start this thread! I'm thinking of applying to Latham Dubai for their Summer VS. Is anyone planning on doing it too?

Hii, I'm quite interested in applying, but saw the application process was v v long! Do you know if they offer TCs from it?

 

[asstronaut]

Not sure if they offer TCs. Yeah, it's a long written application! And I'm not sure what the process is after the written app too

Hi guys! I'm interested as well, though their website states that the Dubai office is not regulated by the SRA so they don't offer TCs unfortunately

Usually only a page

I feel like it could be super repetitive esp cause a lot of the content will be covered in the questions ahaha

Also does anyone know if we can apply for both the London Vacation scheme and the Dubai internship? And does anyone know if the Dubai internship is rolling?

Truee, maybe focus on why the ME/the Dubai office? Do you know if there's a word count on the questions?

No idea, I might email and ask

I'd be interested to know if upon email, they give guidance as to the word count! I was thinking max 300 words, just going off other applications and I think anything over that might mean I'm not as concise.

What are you guys going to write for your CVs?

I haven't heard back from them. Has anyone emailed and heard back regarding the Dubai VS?.

Also, because they don't offer TC's after - does anyone have any ideas if we can apply with a TC?

 

[asstronaut]

Does anyone know if Latham Dubai is on a rolling basis?

Does anyone know if there is a restriction on what year you have to be in to apply for the Dubai Vac Scheme, as it says all undergraduates and graduates?

Confused, if it says all undergraduates and graduates why would there be a restriction lol?

Typically vacation schemes are limited to penultimate year / final year non law. It was just a question to see if anyone else had more information.
