I attended a open day with an national law firm last year. The open day and the people I spoke to was the major factor for me applying. I got on their vac scheme, but unfortunately, I did not get the TC. I’m planning to mention I attended the open day in 2018 and did the vac scheme hence Ive really experienced the culture and it appeals to me, therefore, I’m reapplying. I personally, think it’s shows a commitment to the firm and desire to really want to work there. Your open day was only last year, therefore, i don’t think it’s ‘outdated’ at all. Especially, if the open day require an application process. However, it maybe it would be if it was 2016 as firm’s could of changed its strategy, ambitions etc. The way I see it the more connection you have to the firm the better, it’s how you word it your open day experience that counts. It would be interesting to know what others TCLA members think?
