[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 211154, member: 2672"] I would recommend applying to open days/insight programmes. You may find it difficult to do vacation schemes where you are working for a direct competitor, both in terms of getting time off work and agreement from your current employer to work for a competitors (or general conflict checks). Therefore, interacting with firms via open days and insight programmes is likely to be much easier for you but will help build out your CV/application form while showing interest in these type of firms and building out your knowledge for future VS or TC applications.
